What are medical services in Batam like?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Batam, they replied...
"Medical services in Batam, are relatively limited compared to larger cities in the country. The island has a few public and private hospitals, as well as clinics and pharmacies. Public hospitals tend to be crowded and may not have the most advanced equipment or facilities. Private hospitals and clinics generally offer better quality care, but at a higher cost. Many expatriates and tourists prefer to travel to Singapore for more advanced medical treatments and procedures, as it is just a short ferry ride away. It is essential to have comprehensive health insurance while in Batam, as medical costs can be high, especially for foreigners," said a member in Batam, Indonesia.
