As a foreigner living in Davao, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Davao if they have access to public healthcare in Davao. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in Davao, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in the Philippines is generally of good quality, with a wide range of services available. The public healthcare system is largely funded by the government, and is free or heavily subsidized for those who cannot afford to pay. The public healthcare system is also supplemented by a number of private healthcare providers, which offer more specialized services," remarked another expat who made the move to Davao, Philippines.
