FAQs :
1. What is NHI Bahamas?
NHI Bahamas is a new national health insurance programme for The Bahamas introduced by Government. NHI Bahamas will make our health care system more modern, affordable and accessible.

The new programme ensures that all legal Bahamian residents – no matter your income, age, island of residence or current health status – can receive health care at no out of pocket cost at point of service. Cost for health care is paid for in full or in part, by Government

2. Why does the country need National Health Insurance?
Improving the health care system will lead to a more modern and prosperous Bahamas. We must improve access and affordability of quality health care for our people.

Currently, approximately 70% of Bahamians do not have health insurance, meaning they may have to pay for health services out of their own pockets.

An average Bahamian household spends approximately $2,300 per year on health care, which is something many people cannot afford. Not being able to afford health care can result in illness and even death.

Severe illness can be prevented often with a simple visit to the doctor, health education, and preventive activities. Modernizing our current health care system is essential to improving the health of our population.

3. Do I have to pay for NHI Bahamas?
In the first phase of NHI Bahamas, all Primary Care services outlined in the benefit’s package here will be provided to you at no out of pocket cost at the time you access the services.

4. Is NHI Bahamas available to everyone?
Yes, NHI Bahamas is available to all legal residents of The Bahamas.
