Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Saipan?
When we asked expats in Saipan if healthcare and health insurance are expensive in Saipan, they wrote...
"Healthcare and health insurance in Saipan can be considered expensive, especially for those without insurance coverage. The cost of medical services and treatments can be high, and the limited availability of specialized care often requires patients to travel off-island for treatment, adding to the overall expense. Additionally, health insurance premiums can be costly, and not all employers offer coverage, leaving some residents to bear the full cost of their healthcare needs," said another expat in Saipan, the United States.
"Aside from what I said above, we use my husband's Blue Cross insurance with no trouble. It costs the same as elsewhere, being a benefit of his federal job (he transferred here). Our copays are the same as in Hawaii," wrote a member who made the move to Saipan, US.
