Is Private Health Insurance mandatory for employees in Argentina?

Yes, in Argentina, employers are required to provide private health insurance for their employees. One of the leading providers is OSDE (Organización de Servicios Directos Empresarios), which offers a wide range of medical services.


Employers must enroll their employees in a comprehensive private health insurance plan, which provides:

  • Additional medical coverage beyond the public health system
  • Access to a broader range of healthcare services


Offering private health insurance is not only a legal obligation but also an essential benefit for attracting and retaining talent, ensuring employees feel secure with their health care options. Horizons facilitates this process and ensure compliancy during the Onboarding process and throughout the employment relationship.
