Treatment in Palestinian Territories for Botswana citizenship

The Palestinian health system lacks sufficient infrastructure to serve the population that is in need of medical care. Years of import restrictions — including Israel's and Egypt's blockade of Gaza —have left the Palestinian medical system experiencing critical shortages of supplies such as medical equipment, prescription drugs, and protective equipment. Medical care in both the West Bank and Gaza suffers from a shortage of doctors.

Issuance of visas for the purpose of treatment is not provided. If you are a citizen of a country that has a visa-free agreement with Palestine, you do not need a visa to enter. If you are a citizen of a country that requires a visa, you should get a regular visa.

All tourists must obtain an insurance policy. To travel to Palestine, it is important to take out the most comprehensive insurance that covers the costs of emergency evacuation. In case of serious injuries and a critical condition that require treatment with the use of high-tech equipment, tourists are evacuated by the rescue service to a clinic in Israel. Such transportation costs an average of 5000 dollars, which is certainly not affordable for many travelers. Mandatory insurance requirements for travel to Palestine are:

• Minimum insurance coverage – 35 thousand dollars;
• The medical policy is valid for all days of stay in the country;
• You must have the policy with you in printed form;
• The policy must be registered;
• There should be no deductible in the insurance;
• Insurance for Palestine is most often issued together with a policy for visiting Israel.
