Abstract

El objetivo de esta investigación es determinar la situación actual de la oferta de servicios de salud en el país, identificando diferencias entre regiones, regímenes y naturaleza jurídica de los prestadores. A partir del análisis de distintas fuentes de información se encontró que de 1.124 municipios en Colombia, el 45% solo cuentan con IPS públicas de baja y mediana complejidad y ofrecen en promedio 18 de los 234 servicios de salud disponibles. De hecho, el 76% de las entidades territoriales ofrece entre 11 y 40 servicios. Elementos adicionales como los costos de viaje, la frecuencia con la que se requieren los servicios y la capacidad de los prestadores de atender las urgencias, necesitan considerarse cuando se evalúa la relación entre la distribución de los servicios a lo largo del territorio nacional y la calidad de la atención.
