Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Barbados?
When we asked expats in Barbados if healthcare and health insurance are expensive in Barbados, they wrote...
"Healthcare and health insurance in Barbados can be expensive, depending on the type of coverage and services needed. Private health insurance is available, but it can be costly and may not cover all medical expenses. Public healthcare is also available, but it is limited and may not provide the same level of care as private healthcare. Additionally, some medical treatments may not be covered by public healthcare, and patients may need to pay out of pocket for these services," commented one expat who made the move to Barbados.
