How are healthcare services in Belize?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Belize, they replied...
"Our first choice is to go to the local pharmacist, who is very knowledgeable and helpful," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Hopkins Village, Belize.
"Belize offers a range of healthcare services, including primary care, hospital care, and specialist care. The public healthcare system in Belize is funded by the government and is available to all citizens and legal residents. The quality of public healthcare in Belize is generally considered to be good, with a number of well-equipped hospitals and clinics throughout the country. Foreign residents are able to access the public healthcare system in Belize, although they may be required to pay a fee. Expats in Belize typically use the public healthcare system, although some may opt for private healthcare services," commented one expat who made the move to Belize.
