Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Laos?

"Healthcare and health insurance in Laos can be expensive, especially for those who are not covered by the government's health insurance scheme. Private health insurance is available, but it can be costly and may not cover all medical expenses. Additionally, the cost of medical care in Laos is generally higher than in other countries in the region, making it difficult for many people to access quality healthcare," remarked another expat who made the move to Laos.
