Description
Health care in the Bahamas, as elsewhere, has been delivered in an extremely fragmented manner. While lengthy discussions occurred in the early 1980s on the feasibility of a comprehensive national health plan, minimal progress was made in making quality health care easily available and accessible.
Recognizing the need to control the escalating cost of health care in this country, Care Bahamas Limited, the first Preferred Provider Organization incorporated in the Bahamas commenced business in October 1994. Through an affiliation with Global Life Assurance Company Bahamas Ltd., (Now a part of the Colina Group of companies). Bahamians were introduced to the concept of managed care services in the local market.
Care Bahamas' mission is to provide quality health care in an environment of cost containment in the Bahamas. We will review the utilization of health care for quality and appropriateness.
We will facilitate the prompt payment for services provided at pre-approved rates from payers with no significant nor catastrophic out-of-pocket expense to subscribers/members.
