As a foreigner living in Florida, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Florida if they have access to public healthcare in Florida. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in Florida, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in Florida is known as the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA). AHCA provides access to a variety of health care services, including preventive care, primary care, specialty care, and mental health services. AHCA also provides access to Medicaid and other public health insurance programs. The quality of care provided by AHCA is generally good, and the cost of care is usually lower than that of private health insurance," said a member in Florida.
