Health Insurance in Philippines

[bikerpat]

My comment was slightly tongue-in-cheek, hence the winking smilie.

There's a lot of information here in the forum.

You really need to establish some parameters:-

What cover do you need?
What cover do you want?

- Budget hospital-only cover for emergency/acute conditions
- Cover for accidents and injuries ?
- Comprehensive cover to includes general patient treatments and consultations?
- Do you want to include cover for repatriation?

Pat, what do you already know about healthcare in the Philippines ?
If you're genuinely concerned then you should include access to good medical facilities in your choices of where to live.
There's no ambulance service like UK

With a little more research you may be able to find a decent healthcare plan from one of these:-

Philhealth Insurance from Philippine Goverment - PhilHealth

Blue Cross Philippines

Fortune Care

Globe Insure

Insular Life Health Care

Bupa International

Health Care International

Thanks Terpe, didn't notice the wink. Will go through the various links and see what they say.

Hehehe it's highly likely that you'll eventually come to agree somewhat with my tongue-in-cheek comment
No offence was intended, I'm going to be following the same path quite soon so also have a serious interest.

By the way Pat, I think if you have the budget then the retirement visa could be a pretty good route for you (unless you have thoughts on a wedding anytime soon )
