"As a foreigner living in Astana, you will have access to public healthcare, but the quality and availability of services may vary. Public healthcare facilities in Kazakhstan are generally not up to Western standards, with outdated equipment and limited resources. Additionally, there might be a language barrier, as not all medical staff speak English. It is recommended for foreigners to have private health insurance and seek treatment at private clinics, which usually offer better quality care and English-speaking staff," remarked another expat in Astana, Kazakhstan.
