Many of the foreign nationals residing in Bodrum neglect private health insurance opportunities with the belief that the social security agencies in Turkey provide them with sufficient assurance. The foreigners in Bodrum are of the conviction that their health will stand forever and even if it does crack at some point, they will be able to pay for the treatment themselves.
