Self-insured means that you have financial reserves to cover medical expenses. Most expenses are reasonable in PI, and doing this is a reasonable plan for most situations. You need to be able to prove ability to pay to receive services and to pay off your bill to be discharged. You can carry a medical pre-paid card which proves to hospitals that you can cover expenses to the limit on the card. $1k USD may be enough for most things, and $5k will be better. However, some procedures are costly. I read that a Coronary Bypass is $18k, and Serious Stroke is $36k. Travel insurance is cheaper than most private insurance, and should cover these expenses. But travel insurance is a reimbursement program so you will need to be able to pay these upfront. Your budget and medical history will dictate what you do to prepare for such emergencies. Most expats will say you should connect with a good primary doctor, any specialists you anticipate needing. I would also try to connect with the billing department at your choice hospital to see what they would accept for payment for services, or proof of insurance. Carrying a balance at a PI bank or other arrangement may be sufficient. I would add that if you are in Manila or Cebu look up the ambulance services, and which hospitals they will take you to. Ambulances are just taxi services, and many do not have the equipment nor staff to provide life saving interventions while in transit. Their sirens do not part traffic so they are not great. But it's the best you have access to in an emergency. I also plan to have health screenings in Thailand as their health care system is much more robust that PI in general IMHO.

So thanks for speaking on this even though it’s a very in depth study when it comes to healthcare abroad. My retiree health insurance Tricare is accepted at several hospitals there but all of them require you pay cash or credit card up front and then it’s on you to request reimbursement through your insurance company. And of course I didn’t go to college for medical billing and coding. I say this because of how much paperwork and the correct form of paperwork that needs to be filed with the reimbursement. It usually can take 3-6 months to get reimbursed. I wish the Philippines healthcare and government was more will to do direct billing with each international insurance plan to help the foreign retiree there. I did however find one hospital in Clark that does direct billing, the medical city at Clark. This is driving my decision to live in pampanga area just because of this..and not to mention it’s a preferred provider hospital with my insurance company. I didn’t realize Phil health so expensive for foreigners. Glad I won’t be using it as it only covers like 20% of the hospital bill whereas in the states it’s the opposite…like the insurance covering 80%…either way I am glad I found a hospital otherwise I wouldn’t retire in the Philippines.

I am glad I have a global health insurance company. My monthly fee might be slightly higher than regular coverage in the US. But I don't have to worry if I am covered when outside of the USA.

I think you should include more local only options since many expat retirees might not travel as often to need or want global health insurance plans and with the quality of the private healthcare in the PI, most US expats will probably take a trip stateside to use their Medicare to take care of anything that couldn't actually be taken care of in the PI. You should mention HMOs and health insurance and the difference between the two. HMOs like Maxicare and Medicard typically cover most outpatient and preventative care by using up annual coverage limits. Health Insurance is more for long term and serious inpatient care that usually works via reimbursement after the insured intially pays. Also since alot of expat retirees are senior citizens... they should know many HMOs do not cover past the age of 65 and many insurance plans only cover those up to 75.

Health insurance is very important. Last year out of the blue, I had appendicitis. The total hospital bill costed me around $4k USD. It showed me on the bill that if I didn’t had insurance, I would have paid $100k+ in hospital bills. Health insurance is a must. No matter how healthy you think you are, something like appendicitis can just happen randomly. Health insurance prevents you from incurring insane amount of medical and hospital bills when something happens.

I will be retiring in Taguig in another 2 years and will be 70 years old. I am finding thru my research that all the plans I looked at don't cover pre-exiting conditions. Since I do take medication for Hypertension, Diabetes, and Cholesterol what options do I have to get health insurance that would cover a person in my position. I am worried that the insurance won't cover anything if I need it because they may come back that my illness is related to one of my pre existing conditions

I have travel insurance, but NOT expat health coverage, and I know my BC/BS and Empire Plan from the US will not be taken there. Since I will be there are least 6 months, I will take a look at Allianz and maybe CIgna. Health care is something that worries me AND my partner for the time I'm there. Thank you again. Blessed be.

If you get into anything major in the provinces you’ll die. No 911 emergency services. I lived in Manila got hospitalized and it cost me $25K USD. I came back home to the U.S. It wasn’t worth my life being there.

Is there any health insurance provider that doesn't require out of pocket payment in full before covering costs? All the international travel insurance companies you referenced require payment up front prior to providing coverage when needed. In the U.S. (and in most developed countries) we may have co-pay to be concerned with but full payment up front is definitely the exception to the rule.

I wish a Veteran living in Philippines would do a video about the V.A. hospital in Manila. I am an Army Veteran and my health care is awesome here in Florida. I literally live 30 minutes from one of the best V.A. hospitals in the planet. If I move to the Philippines I would have to start going to the one in Manila. Will a Veteran who goes to this V.A. in Manila please comment in the comment section and give a brief assessment of this hospital for us veterans on the fence about living there. .

I'll be in mindanao and will need cardiac follow up as well as pacemaker. Davao is the nearest medical treatment facilities. Can you let me know which facility is the best for outpatient and inpatient if needed. I have blue cross/blue shield insurance which covers me in Philippines but I think there are forms for reimbursement

I plan to retire in either Clark, Panpamga or Davao City when i turn 70 yrs old 3 yrs later. I am checking out the different insurance plans. Do you have any information on Pacific Rim? Do retirees still need to pay for PhilHealth if they opt for private insurance? The $300 per month premium is even higher than the avg monthly Medicare premium in the US.

4:55 - You are missing some 0s in that chart and why list P 80,000 separately? Why not just combine it with PHP 10,000 to PHP 79,999 and make that line PHP 10,000 to PHP 80,000? At 5:03, you are saying per month but your chart states annually. Which is it?

Thank you Evan....AWESOME job. Also, I thought that an expat could get Philhealth and it was only like 350 for the year, not a month. Is that correct? Very good presentation.

I think you'll find the Foreign retirees pay 15,000 Php per year, Expatriates: 17,000 Php per year for Philhealth. :)

The alliance insurance for 60 years old was 109 thousand pesos. That's for a year? That seems cheap. Can you buy for a quarter? The price I'm seeing for instance is $500 -700 per month. Who should I use for visiting the Philippines for 3-6 months at a time. Fully insured. Any thoughts. Oh, I'm thinking about Pangalo Bohol, so Tagbilaran hospitals maybe and I have a couple conditions I would have to allow for up front to the carrier? Like previous ish stroke and AFib.

I know that the video may be too long if you tried to cover all the insurers, but what can you say about Pacific Cross? Also, some expats were "divorce raped" or had other issues before moving so that, while income is OK for Philippines, being able to find $10000 for an emergency may be hard or impossible for them. So can you do a video discussing the insurers that cover this type of person by offering up front agreed payment to approved hospitals as opposed to those covering after the event through reimbursement. (Asking as I had a friend go through a lengthy law suit after receiving life saving treatment that he then could not afford to pay the bill. He was covered by insurance, but ... well the scenario I already described. It seems, at least in some places, the first thought is "stuff your insurance policy, we want the money now!"

Like I said, great video. I'm a little confused about monthly versus yearly payments some of them you stated by month and some of you stated by year. I didn't think the ones you stated by ear would be as cheap as they sound, just wondering a little clarification
