SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 31, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- With only a tiny fraction of Mexicans having health insurance or access to the necessary credit or savings, a medical emergency can be a catastrophic event as evidenced by the recent COVID-19 pandemic that hit Mexico harder than the rest of North America. It's why Medsi chose Mexico as its "ground zero."

Key Points: 
  • The fresh capital will super-charge the onboarding of tens of thousands of what it hopes will be long-term customers of the marketplace.
  • The inadequacy of public sector care drives people to increasingly access private services, fueling a growing need for OOP healthcare spend.
  • Medical specialties covered by Medsi include maternity & OBGYN (one of most popular specialties amongst its patients), orthopedics, ophthalmology, dentistry, dermatology, and aesthetic or cosmetic procedures.
  • Private healthcare is fragmented, the quality is unpredictable, and the total potential cost of a procedure is not transparent from the outset.
