As a foreigner living in Barbados, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Barbados if they have access to public healthcare in Barbados. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in Barbados, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in Barbados is generally considered to be of a high standard, with a wide range of services available. The public healthcare system is funded by the government and is free for all citizens and permanent residents. Non-residents may be able to access some services, but may be required to pay a fee. The public healthcare system includes a network of hospitals, clinics, and health centers, as well as a range of specialist services," said a member in Barbados.
