Health care in Buenos Aires

Health care is free in Argentina regardless of immigration status or even if you are a tourist who has been in the country for 5 minutes.  In my opinion the quality of the free care here exceeds that of paid care in my own country.  The public hospitals are staffed, by law, with doctors from the private hospitals (where you do need to pay or need insurance).  All doctors are required to have rotations in the public facilities, meaning their level of care is equal to that of the private place (in my opinion). 

The only setback with the public health care is that it might take a couple of hours to get in to see a doctor, but in my country it could take much more time than that with the very best insurance money can buy.

Here is a comprehensive list of hospitals:

Dental, eye, etc. are all cheap as hell.

You are never further than a few blocks from an all night pharmacy, so no need to list them.
