Abstract

Este trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar el equilibrio financiero del régimen contributivo de aseguramiento en salud, para el período 2010-2050, a partir de la construcción de un modelo que simula el comportamiento de afiliación y financiación de este régimen, e incorporando elementos de la dinámica laboral, poblacional (fenómeno de transición demográfica) y crecimiento económico en Colombia. Se estima para cada año simulado el balance de la Subcuenta de Compensación del fosyga, cuenta encargada de administrar los recursos del régimen contributivo. El estudio revela que bajo diversos escenarios el régimen no es autofinanciable, consolidando un déficit que se encuentra entre el 4% y 6% del pib de 2008. Los resultados obtenidos señalan que para garantizar la sostenibilidad del sistema es necesario incrementar las contribuciones en un punto porcentual, superior al 0,9% de los aportes a salud actuales que se dirigen al proceso de compensación interno.
