How are healthcare services Antigua & Barbuda?

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

"Healthcare services in Antigua & Barbuda are provided by both public and private institutions. The public healthcare system is funded by the government and is available to all citizens and legal residents. The quality of public healthcare is generally good, with a range of services available including primary care, hospital care, and specialist care. Foreign residents are able to access the public healthcare system, although they may be required to pay a fee.
