2.There is no more government insurance or health care available. People have rumors, you can go here, you can go there..............it's ALL BS.


I thought Saudi employers were legally obliged to provide their employees with health insurance?

Personally, though I've not had any serious health problems, I've been fairly happy with the dealings I've had with the Saudi public healthcare system.

The IPA has a medical centre which gives out headache pills and checks blood pressure and organises some blood tests, but in the men's section I cannot see them coping with a pregnancyeven if John's wife were allowed to cross the threshold.


The IPA also routinely keeps peoples' passports.

Nothing unusual there. Most employers, to my knowledge, do the same.
