 Caja Guarantees Medication
The Caja Costarricense del Seguro Social (CCSS) board of directors has approved a change to its policies of guaranteeing that not only those in extreme poverty have access to free medication.

The CCSS decision will also now include all adults over the age of 65 and the handicapped, widowed women who suffered an economical loss with the death of their husband, orphan minors and the indigent, even though they have not contributed to the social security system.

The change ensures that the above groups can benefit from the ¢57.500 monthly allotment to purchase medication.
