RandyManBR Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I'm sorta shifting the subject here, but is IMSS really worth keeping? Maybe I'm under the wrong impression, but didn't they (IMSS) seriously cut their coverage of major treatments recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sm1mex Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 We dropped IMSS because it quite treating chronic conditions or giving medicine for chronic conditions so we got private insurance that takes care any medical condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Interesting..... they have not quit treating my chronic conditions and supply meds regularly (except when temporarily out of stock). Ditto for another friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sm1mex Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 That's good. The Jocotopec clinic stopped giving chronic medicines a couple of years ago. Perhaps you don't go to Jocotopec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyManBR Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Someone I know went down to obtain IMSS several months back and he didn't go through with it because IMSS told him they no longer attended to any kind of major treatments. Broken bones and runny noses was about the limit to their coverage. Maybe we (who have had IMSS for several years) are grandfathered in? The person at IMSS explained to him and his Mexican wife that there have been severe cutbacks with the IMSS coverage. I sure need to check into that before paying in for another year.

RVGRINGO Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 The first year has always been very limited coverage. Second year, more; then, no restrictions in the third year. Your friend may have missed that detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyManBR Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I don't think so....he was pretty well versed on IMSS and it's requirements before he went down there. In fact, he had lived here some 5-6 years before deciding to get IMSS and questioned lots of IMSS-gringos before doing so. According to what he was told, these were recent cutbacks and he decided it wasn't worth that. He did, however, know about paying in for 3-years before the maximum care kicked-in, but this sounded pretty definite to him. I have heard others speak on how IMSS is dwindling to nothing these days. Hope I'm wrong........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeside101 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 i would be surprised if IMSS allowed renewal without VISA - since the drivers license place won't except your receipt of "in process". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intercasa Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 i would be surprised if IMSS allowed renewal without VISA - since the drivers license place won't except your receipt of "in process". I have personally done it although it was 2 years ago, have renewed for clients in the same spot last year also no issue, FWIW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
