Hello Everyone,

I am moving to Quito the middle of May and would appreciate any information on health care, should I get a plan before I leave Canada or wait until I arrive in Ecuador.

What did you end up doing? I have been trying to get quotes without any luck. I am moving to Quito in September. Thank you

Hope some replies to this.  I would like to retire in Quito myself, but need to know what kind of health care is available and how much it costs.  Are the hospitals good (I live in Toronto, Canada).
