Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Puerto Rico?

Answer this Question

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

"Healthcare and health insurance in Puerto Rico can be expensive. The cost of healthcare services is generally higher than in the mainland United States, and health insurance premiums can be costly. Additionally, many Puerto Ricans are uninsured due to the high cost of health insurance, leaving them to pay out-of-pocket for medical services. The government of Puerto Rico has implemented several programs to help reduce the cost of healthcare and health insurance, but the cost remains a challenge for many Puerto Ricans," explained one expat living in Puerto Rico.
