15 Expats Talk about Health Insurance and Healthcare in Bangladesh

By Joshua Wood, LPC

Last updated on Feb 06, 2024

Summary: The quality of medical care in Bangladesh is generally lower than in the United States. While there are some excellent hospitals and medical facilities in Bangladesh, the overall quality of care is not as high as in the US. Emergency services in Bangladesh are limited and often unreliable. To call for an ambulance, you can contact the local police or fire department, or you can call a private ambulance service.

How are healthcare services Bangladesh?

When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Bangladesh, they replied:

"Healthcare services in Bangladesh are provided by both public and private institutions. The public healthcare system is largely funded by the government and is available to all citizens of Bangladesh. The quality of public healthcare varies depending on the region, but generally it is considered to be of a lower standard than private healthcare. Foreign residents do have access to the public healthcare system, but they may need to pay for some services. Expats in Bangladesh generally use the private healthcare system, as it is more reliable and of a higher quality than the public system. However, some expats may use the public healthcare system if they are unable to access private healthcare or if they are on a tight budget," wrote an expat living in Bangladesh.
