As a foreigner living in Lebanon, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Lebanon if they have access to public healthcare in Lebanon. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"As a foreigner living in Lebanon, you may have access to public healthcare, depending on your visa status. Public healthcare in Lebanon is generally of a lower quality than private healthcare, and is often overcrowded. However, it is still possible to receive basic medical care at public hospitals and clinics. The cost of public healthcare is usually much lower than private healthcare, making it a more affordable option for those on a budget," commented one expat who made the move to Lebanon.
