My husband broke a toe in Las Terrenas. We were on vacation and we used US insurance. We went o private hospital. The doctor did surgery, the doctor was great. Very decent service! My husband was very happy.
You said it James. If you live in the . Dominican Republic as an expat. You need to have a support system, this is very crucial. You need it for everyday little things; and for serious situations just like what you’ve been through. Brother you and your wife have a lot of support out here. It’s just a blessing every thing was ok with you. Another good video James 👍👍👍👍
Jay, I’ve always said, that when my time on this earth is up, I don’t want to have any regrets. The decisions that I make as I get older are well thought out and practical. I guess that comes with maturity. I cherish the real friends in my circle, and never let the haters get under my skin. At the end of the day, I’m still winning, and that’s all that matters.
I vacation in Dominican Republic sometimes with other couples. On a private trip to Sanoa Island one of the ladies hurt her big toe nail badly. Guy I always book with for transportation and excursions (German Dude)….. He sent a Female Dominican Doctor to completely take care of the situation. I don’t remember the cost? Like 200 bucks comes to mind. I was impressed. I was impressed on Sanoa island as some guy in camouflage (military) 🏍️ed her away to get badged up on the island at no cost. She wasn’t 5’10 blond 135lbs….. She is larger. It was funny seeing her on the motorcycle with some young good looking man in camouflage, 😂. What a memorable experience! I was cool with 20 percent tips and using the same people as always, they hooked us up. I thought it was really cool they sent a Doctor out to us. Dominicans are good people
Such a polite and respectful response to the person who commented about his friend's broken leg. Thank You for the insurance and hospital billing system information. Have a nice weekend.🌴 🌅...
Thank you for your inspiring videos and vital information about the Dominican Republic. I can’t wait to visit with my family and significant other soon. Keep up the phenomenal work you and your wife most definitely are a blessing to others.
Last December 2023 I went as a tourist to Spain and France. I am a US citizen and did not need a visa; however I was strongly encouraged to buy insurance for the 5 weeks I was there. It is always a sound advise.
I always check your videos out for inspiration and information and while I’m sorry you had to experience this ordeal, I appreciate you for sharing the details of your experience. Stay up, brother!
Well explained….in the DR if you go to the public hospital you will be taken care of for free they may give you prescriptions which you will need to buy yourself.
There's something in you that makes people feel good regardless of the situation, and that's a gift. You're describing what in my opinion could've been a tragic and unfortunate event, but the way you describe it, it sounds like you're talking about a movie 😅...and, on top of that, no REGRETS; the best attitude anyone could possibly have. Away with those supplements, and God bless the Dominican Republic. ❤
In resort areas they try to get over on people( I know because i been out there with big groups). I took my daughter to the public hospital after an asthma attack and they treated us great took care of her right away. I offered a tip for the great service and they said no thank you.
These are private clinics at the resorts. It cost ifnyou want services rendered. Just as everything else that's inflated in terms of prices on a resort so are medical services.
I agree are used to hear the benefits of having travel insurance because you never know what can happen. Yeah there’s nothing wrong with living in the area that can be a different state or country with no family but you have to find people that you can count on for emergencies. I lived outside of Orlando with no relatives but my parents and little brother.
I was living and working in the DR, Sosua from 97-99 and was attacked in the campo house while asleep in bed in Oct. 98. 30 stitches on top of my head and a 12 inch metal pin in my right leg. I had a support system and someone was able to make arrangements to pay my bill before my wife was able to get on a plan and get there. We paid cash and I was able to submit in to my insurance in the US and was reimbursed.
My sister in law was in a private hospital in Santiago and when she was nearing the maximum the clinic moved her to the public hospital. No money you’re out
Just like you mention, that's your experience, I'm going by what he told me. An we all chip in to help him out.I bought up states because you mention states in your conversation. Didn't get the joke about friend. The only thing I can't say If it was private or public, going by what you said I guess it was public. Glad everything worked out for you.
Well if you can't say whether it was a public or private hospitalthen you're don't have the correct information and should have kept it to yourself and not pass judgement on the country. Yeah it's my experience but I'm putting out facts, you're assuming. That's pushing narrative and I stand by it.
@@blkarmani you mean it was private, if he had to pay and didn’t have insurance. This is great information for all. It’s a good idea to share with your friend so next time they come back without insurance, they know they need to go to a public hospital. We live and we learn.
Hey Jay, thanks for both videos, as always it's all good! One of my friends decided to get involved in Airbnb in Santo Domingo so he's doing some work on his spot when he comes to visit. I told him to get dominican insurance so that if he had an accident while driving or fell off a ladder and broke something that he would be guaranteed hospital care. It just makes sense. I got my insurance thru Mapfre, it's a really good plan and rivals the plan I have in my country. My time is spent on the Norrh Coast and my agent is there aa well, she gave me a tout of all the facilities in sosua and Cabarete and took me to Puerto Plata so that I could meet the Mapfre agents, they were great people to talk to and they are easy any time I need them. One small difference though, I'm so old I had to pay the premium for the year... All good though, I'm covered. Thanks again Jay and buena salud to you and yours. Stay up brother!
I'm Dominican, and yes, if you go to a public hospital (where the servive is not great) they'll take care of you for free. That's why Haitian women cross the border illegally to give birth; they don't have to pay and doctors aren't allowed to ask for documents to take care of you. 🤷🏻
why would not expect it bredda? real recognize real. when a person moves a certain way people see that and will rally around you. keep doing what you are doing. you have a lot of support and salute to your family for they are blessed to have u. my countdown begins now lol
Mr. Jay I had three surgeries in HOMS, Which is Hospital Metropolitano Santiago. And let me tell you that the Hospitals in the State's don't compare to that Hospital. People from all over the world go to that Hospital for all types of surgeries. And they have a five star hotel just for that Hospital.
Even the public hospitals require you to pay for test. If you have no insurance and you go to a clinic you have to pay. Even with insurance you must buy insurance that’s accepted. Some insurance requires you to pay and they reimburse you. I buy Geo blue insurance and it is accepted at private hospitals
Sometimes the individual have to do their homework and or research first. I am blessed to have Tricare as a retired veteran. I also register with the U.S. Embassy there prior to coming. I double down. Also, my wife is on my Tricare International plan.
Thanks for clearing this up. Everywhere is different ( insurance coverage) so, do your research before you leave the country. It could make a world 🌎 of difference.
Private hospital have better service but they work for money lots of them even take USA insurance one of example is HOMS in Santiago they even have a center for USA veterans. The way it works is if you don't have money you go to the public hospital you won't be denied medical services. It works the same way weather you're Dominican or not.
Great insurance information Bro! Glad you’re back on your feet 💯. Quick question off topic if I could. Do you mind recommending two All Inclusive “Nice” Resorts in punta cuna for my sister and her husband. I’ve only stayed at AirBnB when I visited, so my knowledge is limited in that area. Thanks in advance for any recommendations.
Bro, its so many of them. Also it depends on price range. Here are few she can check out Breathless, Chic Punta Cana, Melia Caribe, Secrets, Hyatt Cap Cana, Excellence, and Dreams Macao are all nice.
@JayAbroad ya that's actually why I watched the video lol because I been goin back n forth but then I had to watch the ER video after to see why u went(I assumed alcohol consumption 🤦🏽♂️)n am a definitely be careful with the supplements because i do the same thing fish oil, VitaminD NAC ,tumeric ,pine bark n some milk thistle😅,I usually watch stuff backwards 😅but am all caught up 🫡,appreciate u
Hey Jay, I've following you for a minute here and on your cooking channel (those garlic, honey, ginger wings are🔥🔥. Me and my wife moved to Las Terrenas in May from Oakland, CA . She's Dominican (NY) and I'm American semi retired. First, let me say that I'm happy they you have fully recovered, and I have a question for you. Can you share the name of your health insurance provider and what type of plan you have? Thank you and to continued good health for you and your family.
Hello Jay, a year ago, I went through the same situation as you. I bought a pack of oral hydration in powder, I bought it at A……zon, and when I took the first sip, I started feeling dizzy, my head was spinning, diarrhea, vomiting, weakness , spike of blood sugar and pressure. My daughter had to call the ambulance . This happened in NYC and the product was from C….na
People traveling to DR should be offered Health insurance by the travel company they used and accept it. The vast majority of tourists prefer to not pay for that (at their own risk).
Public Hospital=Free medical care, requires patience and its often a wait to be seen. Private Hospital/Clinica=Faster service/treatment, but its often pricey and requires money upfront. *moral of the story, get a health insurance if you are traveling or have cash on hand or credit card in case an unexpected emergency happens.
I called BCBS and they told me they do and if you call the customer service number they can send you a list of private hospitals that take BCBS in the Dominican, they sent me names, I lost the email but they do, I have them with the federal government so I called to check since I plan on moving to the D R
Plant to visit Oct with my sister who needs a vacation out of the matrix.. I’m a spaceship engineer n from the streets do not a nerd 😂 plan to catch up with you asap peace ✌️
Glad to see you doing well. It's like a private university in which you have to pay but in public schools, colleges or a public university you even get two meals plus a snack every day for as long as you have to stay in any of those different faculties without having to pay anything. Don't forget to thank the President. No private business would survive if they would not charge for their businesses. In such cases people would only have public hospitals. Unfortunate that's reality. You see my family knows all the addresses of all the public hospitals of each province. Including the one in construction as a preventive measure. The government just inaugurated one (-good one-) in Sajoma. You see some people when they have too many PRESIDENTE forget that there is a difference between private and public. I'm just saying. Some people think that if you break a finger you must get to the closest of the two but you must remember that if you don't have enough fingers to be able to count the money that the private clinic requires from you then the clinic should have been the second choice. Good health to everyone
Exactly, they would not survive if they don't receive a payment for their services, it's not like the public ones that they will always receive money from the government even though they aren't even efficient. I would like to add that they are verry necessary cuz the public ones cannot cover all the demand, if they didn't exist, the system would be collapsed. So, thank you private clinics 👍
Dominican Republic is not the USA I don’t know why people compare . My husband says the firefighters are not paid there and the ambulances and 911 is definitely not the same. People have to take all these things in consideration when moving there!!! I don’t know why people lose their common sense when it comes to moving abroad smh. I thought the tip that you gave about having a support system is a key point
Not you telling the brothas to scrape their knees 😂😂😂 Too funny!! On that note, where should the single ladies go? I need Norberis and her girls to hook a sister up!! Blessings my brotha. Great video 🙏🏾
Well,our health system works really good but people needs to understand when traveling overseas you gotta have a medical insurance that got you covered worldwide for your own safety regardless if you get treated with or without it.
SMART TRAVELER WILL GET Travel insurance for financial cover for many eventualities and situations that you might encounter when abroad. This can include medical expenses (paying for medical treatment whilst you are abroad) medical repatriation (returning you to your home country). Also, Private Hospitals can ask for a DEPOSIT in DR! WHY? Answer this yourself, if you are not Dominican or Legally Live in DR, who will pay for any treatment??? Simple. In the USA, you go to a hospital and even if you don't have insurance they need to treat you? Well this is why, You will get a Bill, you will need to pay our get push to Bankruptcy!
Well, that happens a lot, especially in the countryside, but the bigger hospitals usually have enough supplies (at least for emergencies), especially the semi-private ones (de autogestion) when they are well administrated.
@@TheJoeyboots I know that all the clubs and resorts are serving it, and party people tell you its good, and yeah its good, but my wife is Dominican and she told me of all the good things that Mamajuana does for your body. Its not the Rum in it, or the red wine, its the natural ingredients.
US Veterans can use Tricare SOS. (Pay a small monthly premium) You have to pay upfront at clinic. Then you have to apply for reimbursement if copay is exceeded online. It can tke some time even if the forms are correct. Veterans can also get treatment covered from VA approved clinics. But it has to be service related problem that is approved by the VA. Yup agree if you live out there get local insurance.
@@TheJoeyboots good info. I did not know about using Tricare. Colombia also offers VA clinics in two locations in the country where you can receive treatment for service-connected conditions only for reimbursement.
They look good in the military hospital but they don’t make a lot of money My new woman is a nurse at the military hospital as a nurse and only makes 600 a month
Where i'm at...You might go in for an apendix removal and You might gueth your liver remover 😁 You have to comend your Life to the lord spcialy in the public system
My sister in law was in a private hospital in Santiago and when she was nearing the maximum the clinic moved her to the public hospital. No money you’re out
My husband broke a toe in Las Terrenas. We were on vacation and we used US insurance. We went o private hospital. The doctor did surgery, the doctor was great. Very decent service! My husband was very happy.
That's awesome. I assume that US insurance was accepted by this particular hospital.
I’m Dominican and you absolutely right about the public hospitals and private or clinics good job
Thanks, I appreciate it🙏🏾

SMART TRAVELER WILL GET Travel insurance for financial cover for many eventualities and situations that you might encounter when abroad. This can include medical expenses (paying for medical treatment whilst you are abroad) medical repatriation (returning you to your home country).
Also, Private Hospitals can ask for a DEPOSIT in DR! WHY? Answer this yourself, if you are not Dominican or Legally Live in DR, who will pay for any treatment??? Simple.
In the USA, you go to a hospital and even if you don't have insurance they need to treat you? Well this is why, You will get a Bill, you will need to pay our get push to Bankruptcy!
Lol...yes you're right 👌🏾👌🏾
A public hospital is the worse idea ever. They're overrun and have no supplies, so if you need Ti screws for the leg you'll need to provide them.
This is true. That's why I mentioned it should be the last resort especially for medical emergencies.
Well, that happens a lot, especially in the countryside, but the bigger hospitals usually have enough supplies (at least for emergencies), especially the semi-private ones (de autogestion) when they are well administrated.
You know that the military is on point 😂😂🙏🏽👊🏽
Facto😅
The clinics will treat you, but you will not be able to leave until bill is paid.
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
What is the address of the military hospital or what is the name ? So I can tell the taxi driver.
😅😅I'll have to get that info you.
All you gotta drink to fix all that is have more Mamajuana
Ha yeah lots of it.
@@TheJoeyboots I know that all the clubs and resorts are serving it, and party people tell you its good, and yeah its good, but my wife is Dominican and she told me of all the good things that Mamajuana does for your body. Its not the Rum in it, or the red wine, its the natural ingredients.
😅😅
US Veterans can use Tricare SOS. (Pay a small monthly premium) You have to pay upfront at clinic. Then you have to apply for reimbursement if copay is exceeded online. It can tke some time even if the forms are correct. Veterans can also get treatment covered from VA approved clinics. But it has to be service related problem that is approved by the VA. Yup agree if you live out there get local insurance.
@@TheJoeyboots good info. I did not know about using Tricare. Colombia also offers VA clinics in two locations in the country where you can receive treatment for service-connected conditions only for reimbursement.
Good info. Thanks for sharing.
