As Miami is a city that takes wellness seriously, expats should have few problems when it comes to healthcare in Miami. There are dozens of hospitals, clinics and general practitioners to serve the needs of a population that places high importance on looking and feeling good. 

The quality of hospitals in the city is generally very high, and residents have access to nationally recognised medical care. There is also an abundance of pharmacies in Miami. This includes chain stores as well as independent pharmacists and in-store supermarket pharmacies.

It's important that expats invest in health insurance in Miami, however, since long-term care can be denied to patients without proper coverage. Although hospitals in Miami are required to accept patients needing emergency care, they will still be liable to pay for treatment. Expats with medical insurance from overseas should ensure that they are still covered while living in Florida.
