Indonesia is a developing country with a big population spread out over 17,000 islands.
Building infrastructure is difficult and often sections of society fall through the cracks. I just read that the level of deaths during pregnancy is comparitively high in Indonesia and this not only affects locals. Expats too have to bear in mind that if a hospital is not in handy reach for a pregnant mother, its also not around for a car crash victim or someone suffering a heart attack.
Living on the south coast there are 2 very goodclinic capable of operating and arranging air lifts. Both BIMC and SOS are close to the Kuta area.

Excellent and useful info for visitors Nick. Good post.
Yes, Nick, this kind of data is very appropriate, and certainly a consideration if someone wants to live in Indonesia. Actually, tourists benefit from this as well.
Very important info…
