Hospitals in Mauritius
There are two types of hospitals in Mauritius: public hospitals and private hospitals. The government funds the public hospitals in Mauritius and provides free medical services to all residents. In contrast, private hospitals in Mauritius are managed by the private sector and offer faster access and more specialised care. While there are many public hospitals in Mauritius, patients often prefer private hospitals for shorter wait times and higher-quality services.
