Healthcare system in Chile

What do you think of the health service in our country?

In Chile, the health service it's composed of a mixed system, the public service called FONASA, and a private one called ISAPRE.
Chilean health has the technology, the resources and the professionals to be good, however, the problem is not there, but in the great gap that exists between public and private health.
The private system is pretty good, fast, and most users are satisfied, meanwhile, the public system it’s too slow and unworthy, to the point that many people die waiting for operations, in addition to this, resources are misused.
Unfortunately in Chile to access good health you must have monetary resources, otherwise, people die waiting to receive treatment; that's why I think health in Chile is bad.
In conclusion, the big problem of Chilean health is not found in the lack of resources or lack of medical material to heal people, but it’s located principally in a social problem, the social inequality that we have to face in Chile. Health is a right, not a privilege.
I hope that one day all Chileans will be able to access good health regardless of their economic situation.

    Hi, I agree with You that private healthcare is relatively good, unfortunately it is true that if you have money it is much easier to be treated anywhere, which is unfair to these who do not have as many resources.

    Hi Sofi, I also think that social inequality is one of the most determinant factors at times when looking for high quality health. I liked your blog pretty much!

    I agree with you, I did not know but, another blog mentioned that the Chilean health system is the best in Latin America.
    We have the resources, but only for those who can pay it :c

  Why do you think voting it's important? Since I was little, my parents told me about how important democracy and voting were, however, it wasn't until my teens that I really understood it; Voting it’s one of the most important pillars of the society, since it is with the votes that we can represent our ideals and contribute to a better life in community. For me, the vote is the only way we have to advance as a society, as well as being a fair way to raise our voice against our governments and fight for what we believe. When people don’t vote, governments are less representative, so we get stuck and don’t achieve the changes that we believe are necessary to improve. Each election process is an opportunity that we have to change our society, just by marking a paper with a line; that’s why I always urge my friends and family to vote informed. Voting is a right that we must always protect and claim.

Anime When the lockdown due to the pandemic began in 2020, I was bored and with a lot of free time; One day I started watching anime on the recommendation of a friend and I couldn't stop watching it. Yes, when people say that anime is exaggerated and often silly, they are absolutely right, however, there are other times they are wrong. There are anime of many different genres, so there is something for everyone. There is anime aimed at children, as well as anime with deeper and adult themes. My recommendations are if one day you are bored and want to watch something as a family or something light, watch any movie from the studio ghibli, my favorite one is Howl's Moving Castle. If someday you want to watch something funny to hang out I recommend you take a look at Spy x family, one of my favorite series. If you want to see something romantic, you could see Your name or if you have more time, Kimi ni todoke is a perfect option. If you're interested in denser subjects, you def...
