The fraud is so rampant that the us state dept had put out a warning to avoid multiple facilities in cabo.
The criminals close up shop, and open up again under another name.
The resorts are participating in the crime.
In recent years, the U.S. Consulate General in Tijuana has received numerous complaints from U.S. citizens regarding health-care facilities in Los
Cabos. As a result, the U.S. Consulate encourages its staff and official visitors to Los Cabos to refrain from using medical facilities that do not
appear on the Consulate’s publicly available list of hospitals.
On April 19, 2016, Mexican federal authorities ordered the following hospitals to suspend operations and to cease admitting new patients, following
repeated reports of predatory business practices and billing:
1.- Cabo Medical Integral, S de RL de C. V y/o One World Hospital
2.- Hospital Amerimed San Jose del Cabo S. A de C. V (Cabo San Lucas)
3.- St. Josephs, S de R. L de C.y/o Saint Luke’s Medical Center
4.- Hospital Amerimed San Jose del Cabo S. A de C. V (San José del Cabo)
As a result of this action by Mexico’s consumer protection agency, Profeco, these hospitals have been removed from the U.S. Consulate’s list of
health care providers in Los Cabos.
Please be advised that hotels and resorts in the Los Cabos area may have existing contracts with some of these hospitals and may not be aware of the
Mexican federal government’s recent action to close them. In the event you require medical assistance, you may ask your hotel/resort to arrange
treatment at a facility on the Consulate’s publicly available list of hospitals.
