Some of these non-emergency Mazatlan healthcare providers accept international health insurance for treatment, and virtually all medical care in Mazatlan is modestly priced compared to what most visitors are used to -- which, coupled with the quality of the care, is why medical tourism to Mexico is such a booming business!

Will my health insurance work in Mexico?If you intend to rely on American or Canadian health insurance to cover your doctor bills and other medical expenses while in Mazatlan, it is wise to check with your insurance provider before you visit Mazatlan to learn what their policies are, and what the procedures are if you have to make a claim.

It is also worth considering purchasing travel insurance before your trip just in case something does happen to you and you are not able to make it home.

For many visitors -- especially those who spend longer periods of time here -- it is worth considering buying health insurance coverage that is specific to Mexico.

A more complete discussion of your Mexico health insurance options can be found on the Mazatlan Travel Tips page of mazatlantoday.net

Is it worth traveling to Mazatlan to get medical treatments or procedures?In a word -- yes!

As the cost of health care has skyrocketed -- especially in the United States -- medical tourismto Mexico has increased dramatically in recent years.

Because of its substantial supply of first-class facilities, doctors and health care providers and distinctly lower costs, Mexico has become a major North American medical tourism destination, and the health care professionals in Mazatlan have become an integral part of thisphenomenon.

It is estimated that nearly 1,000,000 Americans travel to Mexico annually for some type of medical care, and this does not count the hundreds of thousands of American retirees and full-time residents for whom "Mexican Health Care" is, simply, "Health Care".



Five of the most important elective -- or at least partially elective -- categories of medical procedures that are requested by tourists are cosmetic plastic surgery; dental work, opthalmologic procedures such as cataract and Lasic surgeries; fertility treatments and surgical procedures related to weight loss.

In all cases there can be very large savings for Americans and Canadians choosing Mazatlan for these medical needs, with costs usually under 1/3 of what the patient would have to pay forsimilar medical procedures in the United States or Canada.

Unlike the government-rationed system in Canada or the economically-rationed system in the United States, Mazatlan's best health care professionals have ample capacity to serve medical tourists in a timely manner.

In Mazatlan, there are no waiting-lists for medical procedures for medical tourists!

Most of Mazatlan's best medical facilities and doctors have experience with foreign health insurance and -- for scheduled procedures -- can usually come to a clear understanding with foreign insurers in advance of providing services as to what is and is not covered.

Then -- of course -- there is the entire subject of the cost of prescription medicine at pharmacies in Mazatlan.

To put it mildly, the cost of prescriptions at the many 24-hour pharmacies in Mazatlan come asquite a (pleasant!) shock to North Americans, particularly those from the United States!

Doctors in Mazatlan deliver First World Medicine at discount prices!
