Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Paradise Island?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats in Paradise Island if healthcare and health insurance are expensive in Paradise Island, they wrote...

"Before our health insurance kicked in at work our daughter needed stitches. We initially went to PM for treatment but after several hours wait a coworker assisted us to a private provider down the street. The cost at PM to be registered was $150. We lost that. The total cost at the private provider was approx $800 not including meds which were about $150. Work health insurance appears pretty good. We have a moderate copay and are accepted most places...even in united states," remarked another expat who made the move to Paradise Island, Bahamas.

"Healthcare and health insurance in Paradise Island can be considered expensive, especially for expatriates and tourists. The cost of medical services and treatments in private hospitals and clinics is generally high. Additionally, health insurance premiums for comprehensive coverage can also be quite costly. It is essential for individuals to secure adequate health insurance to avoid significant out-of-pocket expenses in case of medical emergencies," explained one expat living in Paradise Island, Bahamas.
