As an expat or global nomad, we strongly advise you to obtain a comprehensive health insurance plan that covers all your health-related costs while you continue enjoying your journey to the fullest.
Expats residing legally in Kazakhstan can access the country’s public healthcare system. However, the quality of treatment can vary depending upon the hospital’s location, the expertise of the staff, and the availability of proper medical supplies. Expats are also advised to bring along someone who knows both English and the native language to help with translation as needed.
Private hospitals in the country are better equipped than public hospitals, although not all of them may have English-speaking staff. Doctors at these facilities can provide treatment for most of the ailments. For most critical conditions, though, it’s advised that the concerned patients seek air evacuation to hospitals in other countries that have better infrastructure and facilities. Expats are advised to opt for an international health insurance plan that can cover all such unplanned costs.
