As a foreigner living in Bangladesh, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Bangladesh if they have access to public healthcare in Bangladesh. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, foreigners living in Bangladesh have access to public healthcare. The quality of care varies depending on the region, but generally the public healthcare system is adequate for basic medical needs. The government has invested in improving the quality of care in recent years, and there are a number of private hospitals and clinics that offer higher quality services. In general, the public healthcare system is affordable and accessible, although it may not be as comprehensive as in other countries," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Bangladesh.
