Argentina private clinics warn of crisis, demand urgent government action over PAMI payment delays

Over 30 chambers and associations representing private clinics and sanatoriums in Argentina have requested an urgent meeting with national authorities, citing payment delays, rising operating costs, and accumulated debts, particularly for services to PAMI (national health insurance) affiliates. The sector warns of a systemic crisis that could affect service provision. The government's response is uncertain, and the potential impact on healthcare access for PAMI beneficiaries is a key concern.
