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

Answer this Question

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

"As a foreigner living in Ipoh, you will have access to public healthcare, but it is important to note that public healthcare services are primarily catered to Malaysian citizens. Foreigners may be required to pay higher fees for medical treatments and services compared to locals. The public healthcare system in Malaysia is generally of good quality, with well-equipped hospitals and clinics, and qualified medical professionals. However, you may experience longer waiting times and less personalized care in public hospitals compared to private healthcare facilities. It is recommended for foreigners to have comprehensive health insurance to cover the costs of private healthcare, which offers more advanced facilities and shorter waiting times," said a member in Ipoh, Malaysia.
