Main types of health insurance in Mexico 2023

According to a survey carried out in 2023, most people in Mexico were public health insured. Close to half of the Mexican population were covered by public health programs and were not affiliated to the country's social security institutions or private insurances, while around 43 percent were insured with the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS). In that year, three to four in ten respondents who had no health insurance and sought out medical services attended a private health care facility for medical attention.
