health insurance

1. I looked for info on the health care but it is tough to find anything out. My wife and I have a 1 year old and would like to have another. Is it possible to have a baby over there or does the health care not deal with maternity? (just trying to plan the future a bit)
I remember at the interview, they mentioned about Maternity not being covered. It was also pointed out that you could buy your own insurance and since you will be a resident of qatar(because you work there), you will have access to the state run Hospital for cheap. I must say that the hospital are top notch, modern with western doctors on most of them

2. Can you purchase a seperate health care plan just for this?

Yes. Do noy know exactly how much it will cost.

I have a friend (not an airman) who is telling me about those stuff
I will be in training in Doha in the near future (hopefully) and will let u know more then. Unles someone living there could explain more...
