| Abstract: | An evaluative study with a cross-sectional design was carried out on healthcare cost indicators reported by the 2000 National Health Survey in Mexico, to determine which population group had higher health costs/expenditures in relation to family income. The results suggest that in middle-income countries such as Mexico, families with lower incomes tend to pay more for healthcare services. |
