Expert Info Posted by [email protected] on 28 Jun 2018 Hi all, Is medical care free in Bahrain? I am moving from the UAE, where my employer provides free medical insurance. I was told medical aid in Bahrain will be free. Is this true, or will I have to look for medical coverage by myself?

What coverage are they providing? This Expat Arrivals page on healthcare in Bahrain provides an overview of medical care in the country. From what I can see, your public healthcare will be subsidised. It won't be completely free, but it will be quite affordable. I'm not sure how much the public system subsidises specialist treatment. -Kyle Log in or register to post comments
