Good questions welcome

A few things
you might be
wondering.

Where should I start?

If you’re planning a move, start with the six-step checklist. If you’re already here, choose a topic in the resource hub and explore the official sources. You can search by words like “insurance” or “medicines.”

Is this a medical service?

No. Panama Medical Hub is an information and planning resource. We don’t provide diagnoses, treatment, insurance policies, or appointments. A qualified clinician can help you make decisions about your own health. For urgent medical needs, contact local emergency services.

Are these resources only for U.S. expats?

Everyone is welcome. Resources marked “U.S.” address U.S. programs or guidance; other resources focus on Panama or travel health. Your eligibility, insurance, and requirements depend on your circumstances—confirm them with the relevant organization.

Where is my checklist saved?

Your checked boxes are saved in this browser on this device when browser storage is available. We don’t ask you to enter medical records or personal health details. Clearing browser data removes your progress; the download button lets you keep a text copy.

Can I use this in Spanish?

Yes. All 22 reference guides are available in English and Spanish. Choose Español in the guide library, or use the language switch on any article. The main section pages and checklist are currently in English.
