Healthcare & Medical Doctors

In this section we give detailed information on the healthcare services in the Cayman Islands; we describe each of the hospitals and list all the medical professionals on Grand Cayman in order of their chosen specialty. We also list all the dentists, orthodontists, optometrist, ancillary medical professionals and alternative medicine professionals on Grand Cayman. Finally we list all the pharmacies. This information is taken from the Medical & Dental Practitioners Board of registered doctors and health care workers and it is then checked and double checked and finally listed by the doctor's specialty. It is the easiest, most accurate and up to date place to find an Opthalmologist, Podiatrist or a Urologist!

 

A broad range of medical services are available on Grand Cayman with two fully-equipped hospitals, numerous clinics and many private specialist doctors and general practitioners. We also attract a wealth of visiting specialists. Healthcare and medications are quite costly. It is advised that you secure your health insurance immediately, as health insurance coverage is mandatory on the Island.

In addition to a wide array of medical services and procedures available on-Island, it is also possible to have advanced radiology, CTs, an MRI, digital mammograms, 3D-ultrasound, echocardiography, GI endoscopy, cystoscopy, chemotherapy, hospice and in-home nursing. Pharmacies are well stocked and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable.

 

HEALTH INSURANCE

Health insurance is required by law. The law stipulates that employers must take out health insurance for their employees from the very first day of employment, regardless of the type or length of their work permit. The cost of coverage can be split 50/50. Plans vary from the basic to the all-inclusive, which covers prescriptions, dental, optical and most outpatient services. The cost also varies with age. Pre-existing conditions are sometimes excluded so be sure to ask before cancelling your insurance at home - it is possible you could get global coverage on your existing health insurance which will cover you in Cayman. The cost of a basic plan with dental and vision, for an individual, is CI$164 per month and without dental and vision is CI$105. The premier plan, with dental and vision is CI$475 per month, and CI$415 without dental and vision, per individual. These rates are usually about 30% less with a company plan. Almost all insurance companies have a deductible that must be met before the plan starts paying either 100% or 80% of the costs. It is worth discussing with your health insurance provider exactly what is, and what is not, covered. Medical services are very expensive in Cayman and it is better to be educated and covered than face the alternative.

Some medical and dental practitioners accept local insurance "on assignment" provided that the insurance company guarantees payment and your deductible has been met. This means that they will claim directly from the insurance company for work done on your behalf. Be aware that all charges may not be paid by the insurance company as some private practice fees may exceed the "Reasonable and Customary Fees". You are advised to always confirm with the medical practitioner the cost of the impending treatment. For large items it is not unreasonable to ask for a written quote which is called a "predetermination of benefits". Almost all medical practitioners will verify your insurance coverage with the insurance company before they carry out any service.

Vaccinations for Cayman

The World Health Organisation (WHO) states that no vaccinations are required for international travel to the Cayman Islands. However there are routine immunisation schedules for children and adults that local doctors recommend: For example tetanus toxoid is recommended, as is the MMR vaccine and Hep B. However, currently none of these are required for entry into the Islands.

DENTAL CARE

There are numerous dentists living and practising on Grand Cayman. The Cayman Islands Hospital also has a Dental Department (Tel: (345) 949 8602 or (345) 244 2741). The cost difference between the government dentists and private dentists can be considerable, but the waiting list at the hospital can be substantial. The reason the government dental clinic is so busy is because they have an obligation to see all government employees, government school children, and other locals, first.

   Some health insurance plans do not cover dentistry. Orthodontics are covered on most premier plans at 50% (up to a maximum of US$2,000 per year) for children under the age of 16. It is important to read the policy carefully to determine the benefits and to confirm with your employer that you have dental cover.
