Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Scotland?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats in Scotland if healthcare and health insurance are expensive in Scotland, they wrote...

"Healthcare in Scotland is generally free at the point of use for all residents, regardless of their income or nationality. However, health insurance is not available in Scotland, so if you require private healthcare, you will need to pay for it yourself. The cost of private healthcare in Scotland can vary depending on the type of treatment you require, but it is generally more expensive than in other parts of the UK," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Scotland.
