As a foreigner living in Honduras, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Honduras if they have access to public healthcare in Honduras. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, foreigners living in Honduras have access to public healthcare. The quality of care varies depending on the region, but generally the public healthcare system is underfunded and overcrowded. The public healthcare system is often unable to provide the most up-to-date treatments and medications, and the wait times for appointments can be long. However, there are some private healthcare facilities that offer better quality care," commented one expat who made the move to Honduras.
