Someone said MX cops shut down some lanes to the border??

In Topic: CBP agents shoot man attempting to flee secondary

That would explain the extra CBP presence about 6am sunday when I crossed on foot.  Even as a SENTRI member they were acting extra pissy towards everyone.  Im thinkin SO WHAT...you knew the hazards of the job when you took it.  Stay professional.

In Topic: Vale Todo MMA Fights Auditorio 8pm Saturday April 24

I went to the last one. It was pretty entertaining for $100P. I had heard of trouble and fighting on the main floor in previous events but none to found this time. Good view from all angles in the auditorio. The models roaming around passing out flyers kept my interest between bouts. Look forward to the next one.

I have used Hospital Angeles (Dr Jimenez) for Ear , nose , thoat. He is an excellent, caring doctor.  Office visits were $40.
I love that Hospital, the International Patients coordinator gave me the grand tour. Im afraid I wouldnt be able to stay there long term tho. It would get pricey without insurance.
Which brings me to my question.
Does anyone actually have a private MX health insurance plan? Have you used it for procedures and hospital stays??
Has anyone ever billed their US Insurance for Mexican health care?  Has anyone ever used the IMSS system? I hear a lot of talk about it but Ive never read a first hand account of its merits.
I noticed a IMSS hospital over in Soler, I may ask for a tour of that place. Anyone know where the IMSS hospital is in Zona Rio or Centro?

Just a side thought for all you expats (Im soon to be one too). What does anyone think about ObamaCare and his plan to FINE any US citizen who doesnt have US health insurance??  I heard that the house version made an exemption for expats but ive heard conflicting reports about the senate version.  Anyone care to chime in on this? Personally Im freekin tired of paying big bucks and being treated like cattle. Ive taken good care of myself and dont want to pay for fat, tobacco addicted, welfare sucking fools on the other side.  Ill take my chances with mexican health care and do quite well thank you!
