The Mexican Social Security Institute, the most prominent social security institution in Mexico, plays a significant role in Mexican health care. Throughout almost eight decades of existence, it has faced significant challenges, whose experiences have contributed to the generation of health policies in the country. Recently, the health emergency caused by COVID-19 evidenced a strong impact of the epidemiological transition associated with the high prevalence of chronic-degenerative diseases, which meant an increased risk of complications and death when facing emerging diseases. The institute is transformed through changes in its policies and forms of health care for the population to provide innovative responses and fulfill the commitment to provide social security to our country.
墨西哥社会保障局是墨西哥最著名的社会保障机构，在墨西哥医疗保健领域发挥着重要作用。在其近八十年的存续历程中，它面临着重大挑战，这些经历推动了该国卫生政策的制定。最近，由新冠疫情引发的卫生紧急状况证明了与慢性退行性疾病高患病率相关的流行病学转变所产生的强烈影响，这意味着在面对新出现的疾病时，并发症和死亡风险增加。该机构通过其政策和针对民众的医疗保健形式的变革进行转型，以提供创新应对措施，并履行对我国提供社会保障的承诺。
