There are many birthing hospitals in Ho Chi Minh City. If you don’t have health insurance, you will most likely spend more and if you choose a local hospital, you will probably experience some cultural differences, but the quality of maternity healthcare here is very well maintained. Keep in mind that international health care cost more than Vietnamese hospitals.
Maternity packages vary, and prices are dependent on the hospital you choose (Vietnamese or international, English speaking or not), and the type of room (private, shared, with or without TV). If you decide to buy a package, make sure it includes blood tests, an obstetrician, ultrasounds and other necessary services. Medical costs in Vietnam are substantially lower than what you would pay (without insurance) in most Western countries. Quality of care is fine but you may have to deal with a lack of communication from Vietnamese staff.
