Most doctors and staff in public Vietnam hospitals also only speak Vietnamese, but international insurance offers more English-friendly options.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vietnam\u2019s public hospitals are often underfunded and lack adequate equipment for optimal service. Wait times are also often very long, and doctors and staff generally only speak Vietnamese. Quality of care in rural areas is also much lower. These issues make most expats opt for private healthcare.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most international health insurance providers grant expats access to top private facilities in Vietnam and around the world, so you\u2019re sure to get the medical help you need in moments of sickness or crisis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">International coverage like AXA\u2019s plans also include medical evacuation. This is especially important in Vietnam, where quality of care varies widely across the country and where medical transportation to adequate facilities can be extremely expensive without the proper insurance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\"><div class='code-block code-block-22' style='margin: 8px 0; clear: both;'>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/compare-quotes\/step-one-name\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-4633\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blog-Banner_Asia_3.jpg\" alt=\"blog banner asia 3\" width=\"1138\" height=\"493\" \/><\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AXA International Health Insurance Costs<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AXA international health insurance prices range from around USD $1,500 for a basic plan for a young, healthy individual up to over USD $12,000 for a top-of-the-line plan for older individuals.
