What are medical services in Jakarta like?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Jakarta, they replied...
"Medical services in Jakarta, are a mix of public and private healthcare facilities. Public hospitals and clinics are generally affordable but may have long waiting times and limited resources. Private hospitals and clinics, on the other hand, offer better quality care, modern equipment, and English-speaking staff, but can be more expensive. International hospitals are also available, providing high-quality care and specialized services, but at a higher cost. Pharmacies are widely available throughout the city, and many medications can be purchased over the counter. It is recommended for expats and travelers to have comprehensive health insurance to cover the costs of private healthcare facilities," said another expat in Jakarta, Indonesia.
