Health Care on The Cayman Islands
A high standard of general and specialist medical care is available on
The Cayman Islands, both through the state system and by private practitioners and
facilities
Health Care
Through its Public Health Department, the Government also runs Health Centres in each of the districts, and conducts health programmes including immunisation, genetics and nutrition.
A wide range of specialists, including visiting doctors from the US and elsewhere, operate from private clinics. Grand Cayman is well served by private dentists and optometrists.
A mandatory health insurance law became effective on 1st July 1997. This requires all residents to have minimum private sector health insurance to cover basic medical expenses, with the premium shared evenly between the employee and employer.
