"He also suspected the timing of the announcement could be linked to politics. Mexico holds presidential elections next year and it's still pursuing a seemingly unending quest to reach a definitive immigration accord with U.S. leaders."

Why would wetbacks go home for medical treatment by Mexicans when they get vastly superior treatment in the US at no cost? Doesn't make sense!!

But, at least we now know the Mexican authoity to which all bills for service provided to illegal crimnal Mexican invaders in the US should be sent! But, I still don't understand why illegals would go home for treatment; they are criminals leaching off the wealth of the US, they aren't stupid.

And ideally, he added, the program will work out agreements with U.S. insurance companies so immigrants can get immediate access to basic medical services here.

Don't be fooled. Mexico will not pay the bills or the insurance companies will get stiffed by being reimbursed at rates comparable to what they get in Mexico.

And will the Mexican Government pay for the billions in health care costs incurred by previous illegals?
