I've never rented a car in Mexico, but for GPS I would recommend downloading google maps offline for the area you need. I just did this while traveling over the summer and it worked great.

Yes license is enough. Keep passport on you though. Some rental cars require that. Use your phone for navigation. No idea about SP coverage.

I rented through National via the Cancun airport. Booked through AmEx business travel with my EY contract which provided insurance. Save the directions ahead of time but also used some international data on my phone to keep an occasional eye on google maps while en route to Tulum.

Don't do it. Bad things happen to foreigners in rental cars. Take a cab or bus.

Chase sapphire covers everything with rental cars in the states. Not sure about international though

If your CC has LDW (loss damage waiver), that should cover damage to the car. However you still need to purchase Liability insurance through the rental car company. Not doing so could result in several nights in a Mexican jail while the police resolve the financial liability for any medical and properly damage.

Has anyone been successful in negotiating the schedule on a global pregnancy bill? My provider won't bill by visit and split the global cost into four payments all due by the 28th week. I don't understand how that's legal since it is so off the calendar of services and crosses calendar years (and insurance coverage), where most costs are incurred at the end of pregnancy with increased visit frequency and delivery.

Has anyone transitioned from bedside/patient facing healthcare to clinical research? I am looking at making the switch and would appreciate any insight!
