How are healthcare services in Philippines?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Philippines, they replied...
"It's very important to have cash ready, or to be on one of the many local medical insurances available. Without money, you are doomed," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Angeles City, Philippines.
"I live in a rural area of the Philippines, and I have found the provincial and municipal hospitals to be of excellent quality for all my ordinary health care needs," commented one expat who made the move to Bontoc, Philippines.
