As a foreigner living in Dar es Salaam, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?

Answer this Question

We asked expats in Dar es Salaam if they have access to public healthcare in Dar es Salaam. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...

"As a foreigner living in Dar es Salaam, you will have access to public healthcare, but the quality and availability of services may not be up to the standards you are used to. Public healthcare facilities in Tanzania often face challenges such as inadequate funding, shortage of medical staff, and limited availability of medications and equipment. It is common for foreigners to opt for private healthcare facilities, which offer better quality services, albeit at a higher cost. It is also advisable to have comprehensive health insurance to cover any medical expenses you may incur while living in Tanzania," said another in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
