Insurance in Mexico

Mexico is the default Latin American base for North American nomads. Cheap flights from anywhere in the US or Canada, world-class private hospitals in CDMX and Guadalajara, and a tourist permit system that historically allowed six-month stays with little friction. That last part is tightening. Healthcare is where Mexico genuinely shines: ABC Medical Center and Médica Sur charge a fraction of US prices for comparable procedures, US-trained doctors are common, and English coverage in expat hubs is solid. International insurance still matters because the public system isn't built for foreigners and private hospitals expect payment on arrival.
