As a foreigner living in Rabat, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Rabat if they have access to public healthcare in Rabat. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"As a foreigner living in Rabat, you may have access to public healthcare, but it is important to note that the public healthcare system in Morocco is not as advanced as those in Western countries. Public hospitals and clinics can be crowded, and the quality of care may vary. It is recommended for foreigners to have private health insurance to access private hospitals and clinics, which generally offer better quality care and shorter waiting times. Additionally, it is essential to ensure that your vaccinations are up-to-date and to take necessary precautions against common health issues in the region," remarked another expat in Rabat, Morocco.
