Yes, it absolutely is.

Your recent posts proved that you are working for a very unprofessional organisation/centre. And also there definitely exist a lack of good communication bt you and your employer.

FYI, for (governmental) health insurance as stipulated by laws, you will be deducted 1,5% from your salary while your employer have to pay an additional amount of 3%.

I used to buy an extra yearly health care plan from the international Liberty Insurance Company for my teachers as well.

Now I'm wondering if there will be deductions or matched contributions? Or will I e just SOL  ** I do have health insurance for Thailand and might have to fly over if I had another motorcycle accident?

The Police in Thailand made the rogue driver of a pick-up truck pay my hospital bill. He had no insurance! But the broken finger cost like $ 13 or something. And it helped that the Chief of Police's wife was my boss, no doubt.

A student told me she needs her tonsils removed. A doctor quoted 5 M Dong. But that was a private clinic, AFAIK. What kind of price would she pay at a government hospital?

Would paying foreigners be welcome and get treatment?

Sorry for all these questions! Am just trying to figure out what's going on.

I had a look at government insurance and it was written " for Vietnamese only"

Only VNese citizens are covered by VNese national health plan.

VNese pay as you go charges for a broken wrist - $16; Circumcision - $100.
