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

Answer this Question

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

"Yes, as a foreigner living in Calgary, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in Canada is known as Medicare and is funded by the federal and provincial governments. It provides access to medically necessary services such as doctor visits, hospital stays, and diagnostic tests. The quality of care is generally high, and the cost of services is usually covered by the government. However, some services may require a co-payment or may not be covered at all," explained one expat living in Calgary, Canada.
