Frequently asked questions

Is Swiss Medical or OSDE better for a foreigner in Argentina?

Swiss Medical has more hospitals it owns outright (9), which usually means shorter waits and more control over quality. OSDE has the largest overall network by membership and doctor count. Neither is wrong — Swiss Medical if you want a more curated, premium experience; OSDE if reach and choice of doctor matter most to you.

What is the cheapest good health insurance in Argentina?

Premedic is the most affordable of the major players while still covering the full mandatory health program (PMO) — doctor visits, hospitalization, emergencies, maternity, with no waiting periods.

Do foreigners pay more than Argentines for the same plan?

No. Price is set by age and plan, not nationality — you pay exactly what a local your age pays.

Can I compare exact prices for my age before choosing?

Yes — prices vary by age bracket and whether you are covering just yourself or a family. Use the free comparator to see the real monthly price for your situation across all major companies at once.
