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

"As a foreigner living in Yangon, you will have access to public healthcare, but the quality and availability of services may not be up to international standards. Public hospitals and clinics in Myanmar often suffer from a lack of funding, inadequate infrastructure, and a shortage of medical professionals and equipment. This can result in long waiting times, limited treatment options, and a lower quality of care compared to private healthcare facilities. Many expats and foreigners living in Myanmar choose to seek medical treatment at private hospitals or travel to neighboring countries like Thailand for more advanced care. It is highly recommended to have comprehensive health insurance to cover any medical expenses and potential medical evacuations," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Yangon, Myanmar.
