International Health Insurance QuoteSuriname was once known as Dutch Guiana and is one of the smallest countries in South America. Since its independence from the Netherlands in 1975, the country has had civil war and coups, but the country is now under civilian rule. The country has beautiful rain forests and wildlife along with colonial buildings in the Capital city, Paramaribo. Suriname’s main exports are natural resources and have a population just over 500,000. The country has been experiencing a dispute with Guyana over the oil-rich areas of the cost.

Healthcare in Suriname

There are four main hospitals in Paramaribo and there are quite a few foreign specialists and private clinics. As result healthcare in the capital has increased to a near Western level. Travellers to the country should make sure that they are up to date on their vaccines and take precautions where necessary. Most expatriates who travel to or live in Suriname will want to seek medical treatment outside the country for any serious illnesses or injuries, so it is critical that you obtain evacuation coverage.
