As a foreigner living in Waterloo, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?

Answer this Question

We asked expats in Waterloo if they have access to public healthcare in Waterloo. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...

"As a foreigner living in Waterloo, you will have access to public healthcare, provided you have registered with the local authorities and have valid health insurance. The Belgian healthcare system is known for its high-quality services, well-equipped facilities, and well-trained medical professionals. You will need to choose a primary care physician, known as a "médecin généraliste" or "huisarts," who will be your first point of contact for any medical issues. They can refer you to specialists if needed. Most healthcare costs are reimbursed by the national health insurance, but you may still need to pay a small fee for certain services. It is also common for residents to have supplementary private insurance to cover additional costs. Overall, you can expect a high standard of care and access to a wide range of medical services while living in Waterloo, Belgium," commented one expat who made the move to Waterloo, Belgium.
