Best Hospitals for Expats in Bali

Reviewed 2026-10-31. General independent information; check current official immigration, financial and medical guidance before acting.

Expert take — Cost of Asia editorial team According to the Australian Consulate-General in Bali, hospitals there generally won't accept an insurer's guarantee of payment unless the insurer has a representative office in Bali. In practice, you may have to pay the full bill at discharge and claim it back. Before you choose a policy, ask the insurer how it guarantees payment at Bali hospitals, and keep a credit card with a high limit for emergencies.

The private hospitals most expats use are in the south of the island: Kuta, Denpasar, Nusa Dua and Sanur. If you live in Canggu, Ubud or Uluwatu, your nearest option is often a 24-hour clinic, and for anything serious you will be driving south. Difficult and critical cases are normally transferred to the main public hospital in Denpasar.

This page is for long-stay expats, digital nomads and families who want to know where to go before they need it. We don't rank medical outcomes. Each pick is labeled by the profile it suits best.

What to check before you decide

• Guarantee of payment: ask your insurer whether Bali hospitals accept its guarantees, or whether you must pay and claim.
• Card limit: private hospitals accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express. Make sure your limit can cover a hospital stay.
• Medical evacuation: check your policy covers evacuation off the island, since air ambulances are very expensive.
• Nearest 24-hour clinic: if you live in Canggu, Ubud or Uluwatu, save the number of a 24/7 clinic near you.
• Accreditation: check the specific hospital in JCI's online directory.
