As a foreigner living in Scotland, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Scotland if they have access to public healthcare in Scotland. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in Scotland, you will have access to public healthcare. Scotland's National Health Service (NHS) provides free healthcare to all permanent residents, regardless of nationality. The NHS provides a wide range of services, including general practice, hospital care, mental health services, and community health services. The quality of care is generally high, and the NHS is well-regarded for its commitment to providing quality healthcare to all," explained one expat living in Scotland.
