As a foreigner living in The Algarve, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in The Algarve if they have access to public healthcare in The Algarve. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in The Algarve, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in Portugal is generally considered to be of a high quality, with a wide range of services available. The Portuguese government provides free healthcare to all citizens and legal residents, and there are a number of public hospitals and clinics throughout the country. The public healthcare system is funded by taxes, and there are also private healthcare providers available for those who wish to pay for additional services," said another in The Algarve, Portugal.
