N2 - Argentina: Increasing utilization of health care services among the uninsured population: The Plan Nacer Program With the Argentine economic crisis in 2001, the population living in poverty increased dramatically, inequity worsened, and more people became medically uninsured. As a result, health indicators, including child and maternal mortality rates, deteriorated sharply in the poorest regions, and national averages worsened. In response, the Government of Argentina implemented the innovative Maternal-Child Health Insurance Program, known as Plan Nacer, which helped to introduce innovative changes in Argentina’s health system. Plan Nacer became a powerful tool in increasing coverage of basic services among the uninsured population and improving the governance and efficiency of the health system
