What are healthcare services like in Granada?
We asked retirees if they have access to good medical care in Granada. They wrote...
"Granada offers a variety of healthcare services to its citizens. The public health system is run by the Ministry of Health and provides basic medical care, including preventive and curative services, as well as maternal and child health services. Private healthcare services are also available, with a range of clinics and hospitals offering more specialized care. The quality of care varies between public and private services, but both are generally considered to be of a good standard. In addition, there are a number of NGOs and charities providing healthcare services to those in need," remarked another expat in Granada, Nicaragua.
"One of the most modern hospitals in Central America is 45 minutes away. We do not have health insurance which will shock many people but the USA is one of very few countries without universal health care. We love our doctor who we feel is better than any doctor we have had in the states. He speaks English and we trust him completely. The office visit is $15. Medical costs are low enough to pay as you go. Our prescriptions are less than the co-pay amount was in the states. How can that be? They are the same drugs," said a member in Granada, Nicaragua.
