Implementation of A Drone Delivery System for Healthcare in Mexico: International Precedents and Domestic ConsiderationsOne of the Mexican healthcare system’s principal problems is providing access to its rural communities. Drone delivery has repeatedly proven to be a compelling and cost-effective solution to this problem elsewhere, yet there is currently no scholarship connecting global developments in drone technology to problems in the Mexican healthcare system. This paper is to outline lessons learned from drone systems in several countries, providing information on the potential target communities, technical drone and nest specs, goods of delivery, and regulation of a drone system for healthcare in Mexico.
