What are healthcare services like in Uruguay?
We asked retirees if they have access to good medical care in Uruguay. They wrote...
"Uruguay has a comprehensive public healthcare system that provides free or low-cost healthcare services to all citizens. The public healthcare system is funded by the government and managed by the Ministry of Public Health. Primary care services are provided by public health centers, while specialized care is provided by public hospitals. Private healthcare services are also available, but they are more expensive than public services. The quality of healthcare services in Uruguay is generally good, with a focus on preventive care and health promotion," commented one expat who made the move to Uruguay.
