What are healthcare services like in Libya?
We asked retirees if they have access to good medical care in Libya. They wrote...
"Healthcare services in Libya are generally limited and of poor quality. The country has a shortage of medical personnel and a lack of modern medical equipment. Many hospitals and clinics lack basic supplies and medicines, and there is a lack of access to specialized care. The healthcare system is also hampered by a lack of funding and a lack of coordination between different levels of government. Despite these challenges, the Libyan government has made efforts to improve healthcare services, including increasing access to primary care and investing in new medical facilities," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Libya.
