Argentina – the country of tango and passion

But which health care system is the best to choose when living in Argentina? We gladly help you make the right decisions about everything concerning health insurance coverage for Germans or Europeans in Argentina!

Argentinien-ein Land des TangosHealth care for the Argentinean population is financed via the public health system, social networks (Obras Sociales) and private health insurances (Medincinas Prepagas). The free public hospitals, for example university hospitals, have excellent physicians. However, device maintenance, the supply with medications and especially the general equipment got worse due to the financial crisis.
In big cities like Buenos Aires public services are more easily accessible than in villages and small towns.
Serious medical conditions and hospital stay can cost thousands of dollars. Private doctors, clinics, and hospitals frequently expect an immediate cash payment for treatments. The balance between the local set fee and the actual costs for treatment has to be paid by the patient.

As a foreigner you should think about the best health insurance for you before starting the journey. We also gladly assist those who are not happy with their current health insurance system.
