Costa Rica 

According to the World Health Organization, Costa Rica has one of the best health care systems in the world. The country’s infant mortality rate is dropping while life expectancy increases.

There are several hospitals in the country operated by the National Social Security System. The System, established to provide universal medical services, is close to reaching its goal. This same institution also provides worker’s disability, maternity and senior citizen benefits.
