Argentina: good to know

  • PEP in this country. Argentina's Ministry of Health says PEP and PrEP are available free of charge to everyone who needs them under Law 27.675, and that PEP must be started as soon as possible and no later than 72 hours after the exposure. The page does not say where to go or how this applies to short-term visitors.
  • PEP in this country. Fundación Huésped says PEP is free and available at public health centres and hospitals, and that it is taken for 28 days. In practice this means going to a public hospital's emergency department (guardia) as soon as you can and asking for PEP (profilaxis post exposición); in Córdoba the provincial hospitals are the ones to try.
  • What visitors pay. Public hospitals are no longer free for every foreigner. The national government says hospitals run by the national state now charge foreigners who are not permanent residents, who must show health insurance or pay before non-emergency care, while emergency care cannot be refused or delayed. Córdoba's municipal testing points and the provincial hospitals (Hospital Rawson among them) are not run by the national state; the Hospital Nacional de Clínicas belongs to the national university, so ask what applies before a non-urgent visit.

Emergency number: 107
