Would be interesting if any members who are over in the Phil's or have been over what did they pay or did they not bother, and please don't say you paid back in the day just over 5 shillings

Like most ex-pats I've met here, we have some savings for the 'everyday' needs regarding healthcare. Not a huge amount just enough for not such serious stuff.
That said, if I have any health issue that will require huge financials to guarantee a good quality of life for a quite some time then I'll return to UK, take the treatment and live out a good life.
Otherwise I'm prepared to face the consequences here.
It's a serious question that needs to be thought out properly.
As has been intimated, there's excellent healthcare facilities here in the Philippines. But it's only helpful if you're close by.
I met many who would travel 4 or 5 hours by bus to get to a decent medical centre. When asked what would happen if they didn't make it they all said "so be it".
If I suggested living in the city, they had a million reasons not to.
We choose a life we want to live and accept all that goes with that.
Life is finite.
