International healthcare, medical insurance in Colombo

Tools:

Though public healthcare is free of charge and is quite standardized, most expats prefer to go to private hospitals as these have better, updated facilities and short wait times.

Sometimes the company which employs you pays for your medical cover as part of your perks, but not always. For buying expat health insurance, various options are available. You need to cross-check what all they offer and at what price before deciding on any one. Coverage options should provide benefits such as emergency evacuation, specialist consultations, dental coverage and maternity treatment as well.
