Instituto de Salud para el Bienestar

The Institute of Health for Welfare (Spanish: Instituto de Salud para el Bienestar, INSABI) was a government agency of Mexico that provided medical services to those people who were not covered by the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) or the Institute for Social Security and Services for State Workers (ISSSTE). It was established in 2020 and replaced Seguro Popular, the previous health insurance scheme which had been created in 2003. The director of INSABI was Juan Antonio Ferrer Aguilar.[1] Due to multiple supply and logistic problems in the health sector, in 2023 it was approved for the agency to be merged into IMSS-Bienestar.[2]
