As a foreigner living in Leon, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Leon if they have access to public healthcare in Leon. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"As a foreigner living in Leon, you will have access to public healthcare. However, the public healthcare system in Nicaragua is known to be underfunded and understaffed, which may result in long waiting times and limited availability of specialized treatments. The quality of care in public hospitals and clinics may not be up to the standards you are used to in your home country. Many expats and foreigners choose to use private healthcare facilities, which offer better quality care and shorter waiting times, but at a higher cost. It is recommended to have comprehensive health insurance to cover any medical expenses while living in Nicaragua," remarked another expat who made the move to Leon, Nicaragua.
