Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Namibia?
When we asked expats in Namibia if healthcare and health insurance are expensive in Namibia, they wrote...
"Healthcare and health insurance in Namibia can be expensive, especially for those who are not covered by a government-sponsored health insurance plan. Private health insurance plans are available, but they can be costly and may not cover all medical expenses. Additionally, many medical services are not covered by insurance, and out-of-pocket costs can be high. The cost of healthcare in Namibia is also affected by the availability of medical services, which can be limited in some areas," said another expat in Namibia.
