As a foreigner living in Fiji, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Fiji if they have access to public healthcare in Fiji. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, foreigners living in Fiji have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in Fiji is generally of a good standard, with a range of services available including primary care, specialist care, and hospital services. The public healthcare system is largely funded by the government, and is free or heavily subsidized for citizens and permanent residents. Foreigners may be required to pay a fee for some services, but overall the cost of healthcare in Fiji is relatively low compared to other countries," said another expat in Fiji.
