As a public policy promoting equal access to the health system for the entire population without medical coverage is Universal.
The National Migration Law No. 25,871 establishes in its article 8 that "In any case, access to the right to health, social assistance or health care may not be denied or restricted to all foreigners who require it, whatever 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 provide health coverage to all people who do not have social work or prepaid.
