Local Health Insurance
Argentina has various social security organizations (Obras Sociales) for employees and a public healthcare system that can vary significantly by region. In big cities like Buenos Aires, capacity is generally good, whereas in remote areas it is limited. If you are not in a formal employment relationship subject to social insurance, you often must purchase private policies, which can quickly become expensive, and they do not include repatriation.
International Health Insurance
International health insurance covers the gaps in Argentina’s system, providing benefits that are often missing locally, such as medical evacuations or specialized treatments abroad. It also spares you long waits in the public sector and ensures comprehensive coverage when traveling in neighboring countries.
