As a foreigner living in China, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in China if they have access to public healthcare in China. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, foreigners living in China have access to public healthcare. The quality of care varies depending on the region, but generally speaking, the public healthcare system in China is well-developed and provides a wide range of services. In most cities, there are both public and private hospitals, and the public hospitals are usually well-equipped and staffed with experienced doctors and nurses. In addition, the cost of medical care in public hospitals is usually much lower than in private hospitals, making it a more affordable option for many people," wrote a member who made the move to China.
