This conference will examine the future of health care coverage for US retirees in Mexico. It will present findings from a survey of approximately 1000 retirees in Mexico who participated in an online anonymous survey as well as from visits to several retirement communities there. It will also provide background information on trends in retirement to Mexico and some of the initiatives that developers have undertaken to develop retirement communities. One of the principal constraints to retirement in Mexico is the lack of portability of Medicare coverage and uncertainty about the quality of medical care.
This conference will also present information about a number of new facilities which have been developed and both public and private initiatives to certify the quality of physicians and hospitals. Participants will include government officials, US and Mexican hospital operators, physicians, retirees and some researchers. The objective will be to identify some initiatives which might be possible to improve the quality of care received by retirees in Mexico and to address some of the obstacles to retiring there.
