Right now, unfortunately, they're not at their best moments. From an organizational perspective, both systems suffer from archaic administration and other issues like corruption, which translates into bad-quality services for the rightholders: medical attention can be poor, services are slow, medicine is lacking and, of course, you're better off spending on private health care centers for life-risking situations, because there's a great chance the government services aren't going to be enough. As bad as they can be, though, we cannot let them go, otherwise plenty of people in the country would become unable to pay expenses for health care. Even then, it can be a bless sometimes. My mother has been living with rheumatoid arthritis for more than 3 decades now and certain symptoms become worse, so she has been supplied with a medicine from the IMSS each year that would've costed her over a thousand dollars each application in the private sector. |
It seems pretty much the situation in Brazil. Too many people, too little money, and corruption and inneficiency on top of everything.
