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

Answer this Question

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

"As a foreigner living in Jabriya, you will have access to public healthcare, but it is important to note that the public healthcare system in Kuwait is primarily designed for Kuwaiti citizens. Expatriates are required to pay an annual health insurance fee, which allows them access to public healthcare services at a subsidized cost. However, the public healthcare system in Kuwait can be crowded, and waiting times for appointments and treatments can be long. Many expatriates in Kuwait choose to use private healthcare facilities, which offer a higher standard of care and shorter waiting times but can be more expensive. It is recommended to have comprehensive health insurance to cover the costs of private healthcare," said another in Jabriya, Kuwait.
