"Healthcare and health insurance in Bali, can be considered relatively affordable compared to many Western countries. However, the cost of healthcare services and insurance premiums may vary depending on the type of coverage, medical facility, and treatment required. Public healthcare facilities in Bali are generally cheaper but may not offer the same quality of care as private hospitals. Expats and tourists often opt for private healthcare facilities, which provide better quality care but at a higher cost. Health insurance is recommended for those living or traveling in Bali, as it can help cover the expenses of medical treatments and emergencies. Some expats may find that international health insurance policies offer more comprehensive coverage and flexibility than local Indonesian policies. Overall, while healthcare and health insurance in Bali may be more affordable than in some countries, it is essential to research and choose the appropriate coverage and facilities to suit individual needs and budgets," explained one expat living in Bali, Indonesia.
