Availability and barriers to access post-stroke rehabilitation in Latin America
Post-stroke rehabilitation services in Latin American countries are restricted due to a lack of coverage by the public health system and private insurers, human resources, and financial aid. Public settings offer fewer post-stroke rehabilitation services compared to private settings. Developing consensus guidelines, increasing coverage, and using innovative approaches to deliver post-stroke rehabilitation is paramount to increase access without posing a financial burden.
