Public healthcare system
The public healthcare system in Trinidad and Tobago is free for citizens and legal residents and referrals are required for services. However, shortages of medical supplies and lengthy wait periods for certain procedures have been reported. Moreover, the quality of care in the public system may not be as great as it is in the private system.
Private healthcare system
