Hello, I would like to request a bit of your help,

Im currently thinking about moving next year in SE Asia but i need a city with Health Care access, and a good one as im thinking about taking my parents (60+ years of age)  with me also.

I was thinking of Ho Chi Minh city because i heard they got a really good hospital, but im open to all suggestion.
I loved Vietnam when  i was visiting a few years ago, i only went in the Da Nang region
But im open to other town also, i dont really have any preference for the location as long as it include health care.
Thanks for reading , and have a nice evening or day

Depends on what your plans aee when you get here, plenty of international hospitals in HCM if you can affped to pay.

Having said that even public ones are better than most people give them credit for, during severe covod cases the local doctors did a fantastoc job

If your family have pre-existing medical conditions i would expand on their futre worsr case needs

Thank you for your reply.
We have the CFE , it s the caisse des francais de l etranger, its a private health insurance that cover most of the medical bills, and i read that the french hospital in HCM take this insurance.

Yes my parents need medical care from time to time, at least 2 to 3 times per year.
