Bali, famous for its stunning beaches, lush landscapes, and vibrant culture, is now set to become a global destination for medical tourism. Leading this transformation is Bali International Hospital (BIH), scheduled to open in April 2025 in the Sanur Special Economic Zone (SEZ).

This new facility aims to provide world-class medical care, reducing the need for Indonesians to travel abroad for treatment while also attracting international patients.

The Need for High-Quality Healthcare in Indonesia

Every year, Indonesians spend trillions of rupiah on medical treatments abroad, traveling to places like Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand for procedures that they cannot easily access at home. BIH seeks to change this trend by offering top-tier medical services within Indonesia.

With state-of-the-art technology, internationally trained medical experts, and a luxurious healing environment, we are positioned to become a leading healthcare provider in the region.

A New Era for Medical Tourism

We are designed as more than just a hospital—it is a medical tourism destination. The hospital features a 250-bed capacity, cutting-edge diagnostic tools, and Centers of Excellence specializing in:

• Oncology (cancer treatment)
• Neurology (brain and nervous system care)
• Cardiology (heart and vascular treatment)
• Orthopedics (bone and joint care)

One of our biggest strengths is our location in the Sanur Special Economic Zone (SEZ), which grants us unique regulatory privileges. Unlike other hospitals in Indonesia, we will be the first to legally employ foreign doctors and offer internationally approved medicines.

This is a major advancement in Indonesia’s healthcare sector, ensuring that patients can receive global-standard medical care without having to leave the country.

Sanur Special Economic Zone: A Competitive Advantage

We benefit from our exclusive location in the Sanur SEZ, a government-supported initiative aimed at improving healthcare services in Indonesia. The SEZ allows us to:

• Hire internationally trained medical professionals, including doctors from world-class hospitals.
• Use internationally approved medicines and treatments that were previously unavailable in Indonesia.
• Eliminate bureaucratic barriers that have historically forced patients to seek treatment overseas.

This regulatory framework enables us to match the healthcare standards of top medical tourism destinations like Singapore and Thailand, making Bali a strong competitor in the regional medical industry.

World-Class Cancer Treatment: The Icon Cancer Centre at Our Hospital

Among our key medical specialties, oncology (cancer treatment) is a primary focus. The Icon Cancer Centre, a globally recognized cancer treatment provider, will operate within our hospital, bringing advanced therapies and world-class specialists to Indonesia.

For years, Indonesians seeking top-tier cancer treatment had to travel abroad. Now, with Singaporean oncologists permitted to practice with us, Indonesian patients will have access to leading cancer care without the added stress and cost of traveling overseas.

This is a groundbreaking development that will help many families receive life-saving treatment close to home.

Luxury Healthcare Meets Hospitality: A Seamless Healing Experience

Medical tourism is about more than just medical procedures—it’s about the entire patient experience. We are designed to offer a comfortable, stress-free healing environment that blends high-end healthcare with Balinese hospitality.

Unlike traditional hospitals, which can feel sterile and impersonal, we provide:

• Private, luxurious patient rooms designed for comfort and relaxation.
• Personalized concierge services to assist with travel, insurance, and medical arrangements.
• Exclusive partnerships with Bali’s top resorts and wellness centers, offering post-treatment recovery in a peaceful, tropical setting.

Patients recovering from surgery or undergoing treatment can benefit from Bali’s world-class wellness retreats, spas, and holistic therapies, ensuring a complete mind-body healing experience.

How We Compare to Other Medical Tourism Destinations

Southeast Asia is already a major hub for medical tourism, with countries like Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand leading the industry. These nations have long attracted international patients due to their high-quality medical care and competitive pricing.

However, we are set to redefine medical tourism in Indonesia by offering many of the same advantages, including:

• Internationally trained doctors and foreign-approved medicines.
• More affordable treatment options compared to Singapore or Thailand.
• A unique healing environment in Bali, combining top-tier healthcare with a world-renowned wellness and tourism experience.

By offering high-quality medical care at competitive prices, we are expected to attract both Indonesians who previously sought treatment abroad and international patients looking for affordable yet world-class healthcare.

Why We Are the Game-Changer for Indonesia’s Healthcare Industry

The opening of our hospital is a major milestone for Indonesia’s healthcare sector. It will:

• Reduce the need for Indonesians to travel overseas for medical care, keeping healthcare spending within the country.
• Attract medical tourists from around the world, strengthening Bali’s position as a global healthcare destination.
• Elevate Indonesia’s healthcare standards, setting a new benchmark for medical services in the region.
• Drive economic growth, create new job opportunities, and boost Indonesia’s medical tourism industry.

Bali’s Future as a Medical Tourism Hub

Bih.id is more than just a healthcare facility—it represents the future of medical tourism in Indonesia. By bringing international medical expertise, advanced treatments, and a world-class patient experience to Bali, we are set to become a leading destination for high-end medical care.

For those seeking top-quality healthcare in an environment that combines clinical excellence with the beauty and hospitality of Bali, we are the ideal choice. With our grand opening in April 2025, the hospital is already generating excitement among patients, healthcare professionals, and medical investors.
