70-year old complains of lack of care at Seguro Popular




El Rosario, B. C. - Maurilio Mendoza Sánchez, residente de la comunidad de El Rosario por más de 60 años, denunció públicamente la falta de atención a los usuarios del Seguro Popular y medicamentos en el Centro de Salud de la comunidad.

El septuagenario denunció que en el Centro de Salud de El Rosario no tienen medicinas y que la atención a las personas, no es la adecuada por parte de los responsables del Sector Salud.

Indicaron que los afectados no tienen a quién exponer sus quejas por el trato recibido y que cuando se entrega la receta, tienen que pagar altas cantidades por el medicamento que el Centro de Salud no entrega, por supuestamente no tenerlo.

Aseguró que a pesar de que están afiliados al Seguro Popular, no reciben la atención como se da a conocer en los medios de comunicación, por lo cual considera que es una farsa de las autoridades federales la publicidad sobre estos apoyos.


El Rosario, B. C. - Maurilio Mendoza Sánchez, a resident of the community of El Rosario for more than 60 years, publicly denounced the lack of medical attention to members of Seguro Popular and the lack of medicine at the Community Health Center.

The septuagenarian complained the El Rosario Health Center lacks medicine and that the medical care provided by those responsible is inadequate.

He indicated that those who are affected have nowhere to place their grievances about their treatment and that when given a prescription, they have to pay high prices for the drugs that the Health Center does not provide, allegedly because they do not have them.

He said that although they are members of Seguro Popular, they not getting the attention which is advertised in the media, and considers the advertisements a farce by the federal authorities.

Same as the USA...so what's new?


Home care slammed as elderly left in bed for up to 17 hours at a time between visits

15 minute slots mean old people forced to choose between being washed or being fed
Many malnourished because of failure to feed them
Report reveals lack of respect for privacy and dignity

The basic human rights of Britain’s elderly population are being ‘neglected’ by councils providing appalling standards of home care, an official investigation has found.

Older people have been left in bed for 17 hours at a time, undressed in front of windows in open view of neighbours, and abandoned in soiled beds and clothes.

We are bored of your negative junk Fulano

Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Britain. Socialized medicine. Just like Seguro Popular.

Enough said.

No doubt Maurilio Mendoza Sánchez has ever been in the USA and has been covered by an HMO health insurance plan. Because if he ever had an HMO plan, he probably wouldn't be complaining about "Seguro Popular" nor would be be complaining about the high price of prescription drugs in Mexico if he ever visited a pharmacy in the US.

Thank God for low cost prescription drugs in Mexico.

After living in Baja-cabo for 17 years we finally had enough and left in 2005.

We lived in an upscale gated and guarded community. Over the years we had many incidents; such as police demanding bribes for payment of fines- many of which were contrived accusations such as not fully stopping at a stop sign or asking us to step out of the car and then claiming we did not have our seat belt fastened. ( Lots of trucks driving around with locals in the pickup box - obviously no seat belts here.)

The Deputy Immigration minister had his two bodyguards point their guns at us and demanded payment for an accident he caused. The final straw was an accident where ING-Mexico Insurance laughed at us and said you don't really expect you are going to collect even though our guests had paid the $22 per day for full insurance on their rental vehicle. The accident was awful, but the medical care was atrocious. The ambulances first took them to a field hospital in Todod Santos where the doctor tried to insert an IV when he had blood on his hands from a different patient. The Clinica Especilades in San Lucas charged huge sums for unreadable x-rays which had to be redone the following day when all 5 had been flown out to hospitals in the USA; all 5 people had infections in the sutures and were lucky to get out for proper treatment before gangrene set in. Even though the paperwork showed Full insurance coverage - the ambulance and hospital would not allow the 5 patients to leave until the $5,500 bill had been paid in cash.

HMO OK.


No Complaints. We two have had HMO coverage and an excellent prescription plan (highest co-pay $25.00), before and after retiring, with adequate coverage and care.
