Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Afghanistan?
When we asked expats in Afghanistan if healthcare and health insurance are expensive in Afghanistan, they wrote...
"Healthcare and health insurance in Afghanistan are generally considered to be expensive. The cost of medical care is often prohibitively high for many Afghans, and the quality of care is often inadequate. Health insurance is also expensive and difficult to access, with limited coverage and high premiums. Additionally, many Afghans lack access to basic healthcare services due to a lack of infrastructure and resources. As a result, many Afghans are unable to access the healthcare they need, leading to poorer health outcomes," said a member in Afghanistan.
