USNHGB provides basic, routine, primary, and urgent care to all residents and visitors to NSGB. The hospital does not have intensive care for newborns, children or adults, has limited dental care, blood products, phar-macy capabilities and imaging (x-ray/radiological) services. Medical travel insurance is highly recommended. Patients requiring a medical evacuation will be transported to the United States, which can cost on average $25,000 - $50,000.00 if travel insurance is not in place. All individuals receiving care will be billed for services unless covered by TRICARE (DoD beneficiaries). Individual patients are responsible for all costs not covered by insurance and the hospital is obligated to recoup 100 percent of billed costs.
