Overview

  • Since October 2024, 13 new hospitals and nine clinics have already begun operations, and 18 more hospitals plus three clinics are set to open before year-end to meet the 31-and-12 target.
  • Construction will start on 20 additional hospitals in 2025, with those facilities slated to begin serving patients in 2026 and 2027.
  • The federal government has committed over 90 billion pesos to the initiative, allocating 50 billion for the first 31 hospitals, 40 billion for the next 20, and 2.5 billion for upgrading 256 operating rooms.
  • A specialist rotation program will deploy doctors and nurses to staff new and upgraded facilities, ensuring coverage in underserved and rural regions.
  • Projects span 24 states with emphasis on historically neglected areas—from Sonora and Michoacán to Chiapas and Tamaulipas—to reduce regional health disparities.
