Algeria
Many international companies send their employees to Algeria — assignments that can prove costly both for the companies and for the expats themselves.
Cost of hospitalisation in Algeria
Between DZD 100,000 and DZD 800,000, depending on whether it is simple surgery such as appendicitis or something more complex.
The healthcare system in Algeria
The Algerian constitution “guarantees the protection of health for all citizens”. Healthcare is therefore free for residents, and the entire Algerian population can receive health cover. However, the system has not withstood the population boom: access to care in public facilities has become much harder and quality has suffered. Today, the healthcare system is marked by wide regional disparities, and the public sector is seeing its doctors leave for the private one.
The security situation in Algeria has improved considerably in recent years. Major cities such as Algiers benefit from good security arrangements. As in many other countries, however, the terrorist threat remains high.
French nationals living in Algeria or planning to stay there are advised to exercise the greatest caution.
It is advisable to consult the French embassy and foreign affairs websites to identify at-risk areas and places to avoid.
