International / expat clinics
English throughout, longer appointments, international insurance handled, published prices. The most expensive tier, and the easiest if you do not speak Indonesian.

Clinics in Bali
Private and international clinics by area — Seminyak, Canggu, Ubud, Sanur and the south. For most everyday problems a clinic is faster, cheaper and closer than a hospital.
Clinic or Hospital?
Use a clinic for anything a GP would handle at home: infections, stomach upsets, minor injuries, skin problems, prescriptions, vaccinations and routine dental work. Go to a hospital for anything involving chest pain, breathing difficulty, major trauma, or a condition that may need admission or a scan.
Clinics are typically a third to a half the cost of a hospital outpatient visit for the same complaint.
The Three Kinds of Clinic
They differ more than the word "clinic" suggests.
Indonesian private clinics (klinik)
Where most residents go. Considerably cheaper, often very good clinically, but English varies and you will usually pay cash and claim back yourself.
Best value if you can navigate the language
24-hour and walk-in clinics
Concentrated in the southern tourist areas. Useful out of hours for things that are urgent but not emergencies — a bad cut, a high fever, a suspected fracture.
Check they are genuinely staffed overnight

Ranges are what clinics quote international patients and move with the exchange rate. Medication, tests and dressings are usually billed separately from the consultation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Usually not. Most clinics in Bali take walk-ins, though the expat-facing ones will offer you a slot if you message ahead — worth doing at busy times.
The international clinics often will, if your insurer is on their list and you have pre-authorisation. Local clinics almost always expect payment and give you the paperwork to claim back.
Yes. Pharmacies are widespread and many medicines that need a prescription elsewhere are available over the counter. Bring the generic name, not the brand you use at home.
For routine problems yes, and several clinics have paediatric hours. For anything involving breathing difficulty, persistent high fever or dehydration in a small child, go to a hospital.
They refer on, usually to one of the southern hospitals. Ask them to call ahead — arriving with a referral is considerably faster than arriving cold.
