The Argentine Republic provides universal health coverage.
The National Migration Law No. 25,871 establishes in its article 8 that "Access to the right to health, social assistance or health care may not be denied or restricted in any case to all foreigners who require it, regardless of their situation The authorities of the health establishments must provide guidance and advice regarding the corresponding procedures for the purpose of correcting the migratory irregularity".
Within this framework, there are specific public policies such as the SUMAR Program that provides health coverage to all people who do not have social security or prepaid insurance.
