IMSS and ISSSTE health infrastructure improvements

Overview

The Mexican government, under President Claudia Sheinbaum, has implemented an emergency strategy titled “12 actions in 120 days” to strengthen public health institutions, specifically the IMSS and the ISSSTE.

For the IMSS, Director General Zoé Robledo has reported progress through the distribution of high-tech medical equipment, such as mammographs and electrocardiographs, to various hospitals. This initiative includes an 8 percent salary increase for 565,000 active workers and 370,000 retirees, the hiring of 2,500 specialists, and the basification of over 10,000 workers to modernize hospital infrastructure.

Parallel efforts for the ISSSTE, announced by Director Martí Batres Guadarrama, involve hiring 1,710 specialists, 502 nurses, and 250 general practitioners. The ISSSTE plan focuses on completing seven hospital works, initiating six new construction or rehabilitation projects, and building 100 new consultorios for the Universal Health Service. Additionally, the institute aims to maintain medicine supplies above 97 percent, remodel 64 emergency rooms, and double telemedicine consultations to address surgical backlogs.

Specific regional focus for ISSSTE includes concluding ongoing works in Oaxaca, Quintana Roo, Michoacán, and the State of Mexico, while starting new projects in Durango, Sinaloa, Tabasco, and Chiapas. To bolster medical capacity, the institute plans to acquire 69 tomographs, 53 mammographs, seven magnetic resonance imaging machines, and a linear accelerator.
