    ICE in Rosario, Act II

    In all honesty, Argentina has made it so easy for everybody to have legal status, that I can only sympathize with refugees at this point regarding legal status. My one concern with this administration, or any other, is when things are not compliant with Constitutional rights and obligations. My...

    Foriegners must pay in advance in public hospitals?

    Tourists have been using the healthcare and education system since forever. As a matter of fact I believe these new rules are inconstitutional as art 20 does not make a difference between foreigner that have legal residency or not. I think the only reason behind it is political credit tbh. I...

    Looking for a lawyer for neighbor dispute

    I am sorry you have to deal with one of these. I used to be a member of my buidling's HOA and we had complaints of people that did not like somebody ringing the bell to another unit, or people closeing a door at night, etc. I am not sure what your neighbor complains about, but you must know that...

    Current therapist, hoping to study psychiatry in Argentina

    Not to discourage you, but it will be a very complex and lengthy process. We are talking years. If you are fluent in Spanish and want to work with local patients, it may be best to pursue a BS in psychology, that takes 4 years and can be done online at a private university ( compared to US...

    Medical insurance through a sindicato?

    Osecac is one of the largest ones. It is very decent, you just have to explore and see how it works.

    Medical Expenses

    It really is not a good deal at all. Depending on how much you use it, I would actually consider getting a higher plan with copays ( really it all depends on how much you use it, how much you travel, and your existing conditions ).

    Medical insurance through a sindicato?

    It all depends on what kind of insurance: if it is through monotributo, registered employment, if it is tied to your activity or you chose a different obra social. Some are very good, others the horror. It really all depends. Also some people redirect their obra social contribution to a private...

    Medical Expenses

    There is a constant shortage of sheets and pillows in all public hospitals that has been ongoing for years. I do not understand no washing or disinfecting wounds after MRI/ CT scan though. Tetanus vaccine being unavailable and zero analgesia is also unacceptable.

    Medical Expenses

    You definitely chose the best available option given the emergency. If you have colleagues in Arg reaching out could have maybe helped get treated in a better facility ( or them showing up and talking to hospital staff could have helped to some extent ). I never travel abroad without insurance...
