IMSS: In this state, night consultations are offered to beneficiaries.
The director general of the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS), Zoé Robledo Aburto, highlighted the implementation of a new nighttime consultation modality in family medicine units.
This is part of the "2-30-100" strategy, which seeks to expand healthcare coverage and maximize the Institute's installed capacity.
During his participation in the morning press conference, Robledo explained that this initiative arose from surveys and comments from beneficiaries themselves, especially in Quintana Roo, where many people work in the tourism sector and find it difficult to get consultations during regular business hours.

"It's about making the most of our installed capacity and adapting to what's most convenient and convenient for our beneficiaries," he said.
