Healthcare and Health Insurance for Expats Moving to Vietnam

Pointers to trusted clinics and the health cover that makes sense here, arranged by Nest through a trusted partner.

Real people, not a call centreMeet Leslie and Claire and the rest of the team. A real person reads every healthcare & insurance request and gets back to you on the app you prefer, in English or Vietnamese.

How it works

  1. Tell us about your move

    Three short steps, about three minutes.

  2. We contact you to book a call

    A concierge contacts you, on the app you prefer, to find a time for a free 20-minute call.

  3. We build your relocation plan

    On the call we work out which services you need, in what order, and what each costs.

  4. We get started

    Your concierge takes you through the plan step by step. If you only need a home, a leasing agent looks after you from there.

Two questions matter in your first weeks: where would you go if someone in the family fell ill, and will your insurance pay? It is far easier to answer them before you need to.

Nest helps through a trusted partner, so you arrive with cover that works here and a clinic you already know.

Before you move

A few things are worth doing before you fly.

  • Check that your health insurance covers you in Vietnam, not only at home
  • Find a clinic or a GP near your new home
  • Ask how your insurer pays: some pay the clinic directly, others pay you back after you have paid
  • Bring copies of prescriptions and medical records

What it costs

Cover depends on your family and what you need, so ask us and we will come back with options before you commit to anything.

Common questions

Does my health insurance cover me in Vietnam?
Check your policy before you move: many cover you only at home. Ask Nest and we will help you find cover that works here.
How do clinics get paid by insurers?
Some insurers pay the clinic directly; others ask you to pay and claim the money back. Ask your insurer which before you need a doctor.
