It's unbelievable that Bolivia denied medical treatment to a 4-year-old Argentine girl with 80% of her body burned. This should be reciprocal. Bolivians receive free medical care in Argentina without any problems or restrictions. Why did this happen? The girl could have died because of this...

I had to visit the emergency room at Sanatorio Trinidad de Palermo, and it was chaotic due to the long wait times. There were too many people with dengue symptoms. However, I found out there's a virtual queue system through an app. Essentially, you can schedule an appointment via the app for the...

I am not feeling well and woke up with a fever and it is getting worse. I was vomiting last night but it could have been something I ate. It is probably a good idea to visit a hospital or medical clinic. Can anyone post the best option for me? I am just here on a tourist visa and I have no...

Does anyone know how much their monthly medical healthcare insurance premiums are going to get increased? I got a call saying it would get increased but the call got disconnected and I can't get anyone on the phone now. Does anyone know if it's all the medical providers that are going up? I...
