The Mexican Institute of Social Security (Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, IMSS) is a government agency established on January 19, 1943, by President Manuel Ávila Camacho.

As a cornerstone of Mexico’s public welfare system, IMSS is responsible for administering healthcare services, pensions, and social security benefits.

It operates under the Secretariat of Health and plays a vital role in upholding Article 123 of the Mexican Constitution, which guarantees workers’ rights to health and social protection.
