Health Care in Mexico

Health care in Mexico is provided via public institutions, private entities, or private physicians. Health care delivered through private health care organizations operates entirely on the free-market system, i.e., it is available to those who can afford it. This is also the case of health care obtained from private physicians at their private office or clinic. Public health care delivery, on the other hand, is accomplished via an elaborate provisioning and delivery system put in place by the Mexican Federal Government.

Famous quotes containing the words health, care and/or mexico:

    “We are conscious of an animal in us, which awakens in proportion as our higher nature slumbers. It is reptile and sensual, and perhaps cannot be wholly expelled; like the worms which, even in life and health, occupy our bodies. Possibly we may withdraw from it, but never change its nature. I fear that it may enjoy a certain health of its own; that we may be well, yet not pure.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Miracles occur,
    if you care to call those spasmodic
    Tricks of radiance miracles. The wait’s begun again,
    The long wait for the angel,
    For that rare, random descent.”
    —Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    “Is this what all these soldiers, all this training, have been for these seventy-nine years past? Have they been trained merely to rob Mexico and carry back fugitive slaves to their masters?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
