Mexico’s Universal Health Care Is Work in Progress

Mexico’s Universal Health Care Is Work in Progress - NYTimes.com: "A decade ago, half of all Mexicans had no health insurance at all. Then the country’s Congress passed a bill to ensure health care for every Mexican without access to it. The goal was explicit: universal coverage.

By September, the government expects to have enrolled about 51 million people in the insurance plan it created six years ago — effectively reaching the target, at least on paper.

The big question, critics contend, is whether all those people actually get the health care the government has promised."
