What are healthcare services like in Bolivia?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Bolivia, they replied:
"Healthcare services in Bolivia are provided by both public and private institutions. The public healthcare system is funded by the government and is available to all Bolivian citizens. The quality of public healthcare varies depending on the region, but generally it is considered to be of a lower standard than private healthcare. Foreign residents do have access to the public healthcare system, but they are required to pay for services. Expats in Bolivia typically use the private healthcare system, as it is more reliable and of a higher quality than the public system," remarked one member in Bolivia.
