- Health insurance is available through local and international insurance companies. Group plans are available where employers arrange a health insurance plan on behalf of their employees. Most local insurance carriers include coverage for Bahamians seeking medical care in the U.S. Local hospitals accept most U.S. health insurance but may require a cash or credit card security deposit for medical services.
- There are no major health issues and concerns for travelers to The Bahamas and generally health and sanitation standards are among the highest in the region.
