What are medical services in Korea like?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Korea, they replied...
"Korea has a well-developed healthcare system that provides a wide range of medical services. Medical care is generally of a high quality and is available in both public and private hospitals. The country has a universal health insurance system that covers most medical expenses, including hospitalization, surgery, and prescription drugs. In addition, there are a number of specialized medical centers that offer advanced treatments and procedures. The government also provides free medical services for low-income individuals and families," remarked another expat who made the move to Korea.
"The doctor co-pay and medications are very inexpensive compared to my home country. I do not trust the doctors to operate as three friends died while be operated on," explained one expat living in Daejeon, Korea.
