Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Nassau?
When we asked expats in Nassau if healthcare and health insurance are expensive in Nassau, they wrote...
"Healthcare and health insurance in Nassau can be expensive. The cost of medical care is generally higher than in other countries, and health insurance premiums can be costly. Additionally, many medical services are not covered by insurance, so out-of-pocket expenses can add up quickly. However, there are some government-subsidized health insurance plans available to help offset the cost of medical care," said another expat in Nassau, Bahamas.
"I have found that the health insurance costs is more related to your health history then where you choose to live. Exclusions in new policies are common if you have a history of certain health problems. I have expat insurance as well as international health care insurance and have found them to be adequate in paying for both emergency situations as well as routine costs. The one problem has always been that I must pay for many services on my own first and then have it reimbursed by the health care provider, this can be hard on the cash flow if you don't have the money put aside for an emergency situation," wrote a member who made the move to Nassau, Bahamas.
