Abstract

El presente documento hace una revisión de las tendencias recientes del régimen contributivo de salud y plantea algunas de sus perspectivas en materia de coberturas para los próximos anos. La revisión examina algunas de las bondades y fallas de mercado que han sido documentadas en la literatura sobre el caso del sistema de salud en Colombia. Con base en las tendencias observadas en los primeros diez anos (10) de operación del régimen contributivo del sistema de salud, bajo el esquema de competencia regulada, se evalúan los logros en materia de cobertura y se construyen algunos escenarios de posibles tendencias hacia el futuro. El documento concluye que las características estructurales del sistema hacen difícil extender la cobertura de los servicios de salud a la totalidad de la población colombiana.
