Medical Catalog
Medical Services Catalog
It would be too space-consuming to list all the procedures and tests available at GMA´s hospitals. That list would probably exceed that of restrictions and preexisting conditions insurance companies have!
We can classify the medical services as: Diagnostics, where tests are performed to assess the status of your health and establish the nature or course of a disease; and Medical Treatment and Surgical Interventions, which aim to treat the illness. A few examples follow:
