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

Answer this Question

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

"As a foreigner living in Salmiya, you will have access to public healthcare, but you will be required to pay an annual health insurance fee. The public healthcare system in Kuwait is generally of a high standard, with well-equipped hospitals and clinics, and qualified medical professionals. However, it is important to note that public healthcare facilities can be crowded, and waiting times may be longer compared to private healthcare facilities. Additionally, language barriers may be an issue, as not all medical staff may be fluent in English. Many expats in Kuwait opt for private healthcare, which offers a wider range of services and shorter waiting times, but at a higher cost," said another in Salmiya, Kuwait.
