Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Turkey?
When we asked expats in Turkey if healthcare and health insurance are expensive in Turkey, they wrote...
"Healthcare and health insurance in Turkey can be expensive, depending on the type of coverage and services needed. Generally, public healthcare is provided free of charge, but private healthcare can be costly. Health insurance is also available, but premiums can be expensive, and coverage may not be comprehensive. Additionally, many people in Turkey are not able to afford health insurance, leaving them with limited access to healthcare," wrote a member who made the move to Turkey.
