Healthcare Benefits for Expats when enrolled with Lakeside Medical Group

It is never a simple exercise to explore health and medical services in a new country-especially if you are an expat. But health is one factor that you cannot ignore if you are away from home. Make sure you are well-prepared for medical emergencies before moving to any new destination.

Mexico is one country that draws in expatriates every year due to its rich culture and inexpensive lifestyle. Even healthcare in Mexico is accessible and affordable.

Private healthcare service is the best option for expats moving to Mexico. This is because when compared to public or government hospitals, private clinics and hospitals are well-equipped and offer high quality care. They have English-speaking doctors who have been trained in the USA or Europe along with professional staff.

Waiting time is also less in private hospitals and clinics in Mexico. So if you are looking for better infrastructure and specialised services customised to your health needs, then private healthcare system is the best option.

Do private hospitals accept foreign insurance plans?

Mexico offers inexpensive, high quality healthcare but private hospitals don’t accept foreign health insurance plans. This means, that you will have to pay out-of-pocket if you are seeking medical services at a private hospital or clinic.

But if you wish to secure yourself from undue healthcare worries without spending extra, then become a member with Lakeside Medical Group.

Use your existing insurance in Mexico

With Lakeside Medical Group, you can avail high quality care using your existing US health insurance plan. There is no need for you to buy a new plan or spend anything extra.
