As a foreigner living in Ivory Coast, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Ivory Coast if they have access to public healthcare in Ivory Coast. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, foreigners living in Ivory Coast have access to public healthcare. The quality of care varies depending on the region, but generally the public healthcare system is considered to be of good quality. The public healthcare system is free for all citizens and residents, and there are a number of public hospitals and clinics throughout the country. The public healthcare system is supplemented by a number of private healthcare providers, which offer more specialized services," commented one expat who made the move to Ivory Coast.
