"Healthcare and health insurance in Jakarta, can be considered expensive for the average citizen, especially when compared to the average income. Public healthcare facilities are often overcrowded and underfunded, leading many people to seek private healthcare services, which can be costly. Health insurance is available, but the premiums can be high for comprehensive coverage, making it unaffordable for some individuals. Additionally, the quality of healthcare can vary greatly between public and private facilities, further complicating the affordability and accessibility of healthcare services in Jakarta," remarked another expat in Jakarta, Indonesia.
