Healthcare system in Brazil<\/strong><\/p>\n

The availability of quality healthcare varies widely from region to region in Brazil. The ratio of doctors per 1000 is 3.28 in the urban areas but is only 0.63 in rural areas. Approximately 60% of Brazil’s hospitals are privately owned, either profit or non-profit, while the remaining 40% percent are public hospitals. <\/span><\/p>\n

80% of urban in-patients as well as most medical tourism patients are catered for by privately-owned health facilities.<\/p>
