As a foreigner living in Angola, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Angola if they have access to public healthcare in Angola. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, foreigners living in Angola have access to public healthcare. The quality of care varies depending on the region, but generally the public healthcare system is underfunded and understaffed. Many people opt to use private healthcare facilities, which are more expensive but offer better quality care," explained one expat living in Angola.
