Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Da Nang?

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

"Healthcare and health insurance in Da Nang, can be considered relatively affordable compared to many Western countries. Public hospitals and clinics offer low-cost services, but the quality of care and facilities may not be up to international standards. Private hospitals and clinics are more expensive but provide better quality care and modern facilities. Health insurance is available at various price points, with local insurance being more affordable than international coverage. However, it is essential to carefully review the coverage and benefits of any insurance plan before purchasing. Overall, healthcare and health insurance costs in Da Nang are generally manageable, but the quality of care and coverage can vary significantly," remarked another expat who made the move to Da Nang, Vietnam.

"Cigna is expensive for us simply, because when we go to the USA we are not covered. So, we get a travel insurance and pay out of pocket for most heavy expenses. For example, I had to be hospitalized on a visit home and I didn't even reach the 5K deductible. It's frustrating. I get reimbursed for other expenses that I incur for example, dental emergencies etc. I am reconsidering how to deal with this situation in the next year," explained one expat living in Da Nang, Vietnam.
