One of the main questions I get from all of you is about health insurance in Mexico. And it makes sense- medical insurance is one of those intangibles we buy because it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
So, in this video, I am joined by Brett Lamar from Expat Insurance so you can learn more about your health insurance options in Mexico.
In this video, you will learn:
How is health insurance priced in Mexico- what variables go into the cost of the premium?
International insurance vs. Mexican private health insurance. Is it more expensive to buy one vs the other?
Why having an agent/broker as your contact is important. They help you understand your benefits and can also help you with the claims department at a hospital in an emergency.
Some of the costs in Mexico if you self-insure and pay out of pocket. Is having health insurance really worth it?
Why having a Mexican residency matters when getting private health insurance? And what you can do if you are a tourist only.
Is a medical evacuation plan good enough? Are they too good to be true?
And more!

No más white/black t**sh ilegales en nuestro México! No queremos r*dnec*s!
Also your guest mentioned something important to think about. Being charged higher prices at large expat locations. Important to know. Thanks
Exactly. I’ve heard CZcamsrs suggest people sell their homes and belongings to leave US yet no mention or little mention of medical coverage.
Thanks Brett. Thanks so much Brett
Those CZcamsrs are doing that for views. Not to actually help you
Thanks for Posting this Video as I have been attempting to Figure Out this.
Great Timing and Appreciate the Support
Thanks for watching! Hope this is helpful
Thanks. a deal breaker definitely. Game changer or life changer. Very few CZcams channels discuss this important manner. Their objectives seem to be cracking the rental & realty markets looking for commissions in the future or charging others a fee to introduce them to Mexico . Medical insurance from US or in Mexico is important and access to good medical care , nursing homes , assisted living. From what I am aware the average Social Security check is only 1750 USD and nursing homes cost more than that in the Lakeside area here. Or close to that
Very interesting about auto insurance too.
Felicitaciones Mariana, muy buena la intervención de Brett. Mucha información.
Saludos Daniel
THis is such good and straight forward information from the source! Thank you for having Brett on this segment Marianna.
This is great information . Thank you for sharing .
thanks for watching. I also have more info on healthcare on my website mexicorelocationguide.com/blog/
This is very helpful
Great. Glad it’s helpful
It’s an important topic to consider before moving to Mexico
I need to get some insurance
What are the age restrictions? Thanks 😊
I am a retired US Army veteran and have Tricare for life. My employer is relocating me to Mexico for work for six months or longer. How can I get healthcare insurance and how much would it cost. Thank you
Can you do a similar segment on schools?
Thanks for the suggestion

Can we get the 40 pre existing conditions that are an auto denial?
Reach out to Brett please 😀
Did Brett mispeak about the cost of miniscus surgery? He said it cost $35K USD for arthroscopic surgery. That seems like a US price.
surgeries can be expensive in Mexico. of course it all depends on the surgeon, the city, whether they will use special equipment and how long you’ll stay in a hospital. You can however have surgery cheaper than that it all depends which surgeon you visit
What do people do that have pre existing conditions and are excluded from insurance policies?
most people end up paying out of pocket, and save money for emergencies
And if you’re from the USA many people keep Medicare and fly back for care if needed or if it’s too costly in Mexico to pay out of pocket - for example surgeries or non life threatening treatments like Cancer
Great question
How do I work with your company?
Is there an average cost of insurance for a married couple in their late 40's and early 50's?
it varies too much to give you an average. I know people paying $65 USD a month for coverage in that age group, but I am not sure what their deductible is
Do you provide medical evacuation policies?
He doesn’t
@@MexicoRelocationGuide Thanks! That is an important fall back for us older expats.
However it’s very hard to get the hospitals to actually agree that your medical condition requires you to be airlifted to your home country
@@MexicoRelocationGuide I understand. I reckon establishing a relationship with an honest local doctor would help. Hopefully he or she would see that what is best for the patient would prevail.
