"Yes, as a foreigner living in Lagos, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in Portugal is generally considered to be of good quality, with a wide range of services available. The Portuguese government provides free healthcare to all citizens and legal residents, including foreigners, through the National Health Service (Serviço Nacional de Saúde). The public healthcare system is supplemented by a network of private healthcare providers, which offer more specialized services," said another in Lagos, Portugal.
