Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Crucita?

"So far we have been paying out of pocket for our medical needs. I just received my Visa last week. We do now have private health insurance for about $100 a month total for both of us. It doesn't really cover much but we were told it was needed in order to get our Cedulas. After we get the Cedulas, we can opt out of the private ins if we want. We are going to keep it and also enroll in the public health insurance for the bigger stuff. I believe it is about $90 a month each. Like I said, now we have been paying out of pocket for medical stuff. You can have a doctor come to your house, yes, a house call, for about $20. Medication is way cheaper here than in the states. No prescriptions are needed for most medications. Some common OTC medications in the States can be hard to find here," wrote a member who made the move to Crucita, Ecuador.
