ABSTRACT

La unidad de pago por capitación (UPC) es la prima del seguro en el Sistema de Seguridad Social en Salud de Colombia. El análisis de su comportamiento es de suma importancia por sus efectos sobre la capacidad del sistema de lograr sus objetivos en cuanto al estado de salud de la población, el acceso a los servicios y su sostenibilidad financiera. En el caso del régimen contributivo, la UPC ha estado asociada a la dinámica de la compensación entre las cotizaciones y los recursos necesarios para financiar la población a cargo de las EPS, con pocas consideraciones sobre el costo del Plan Obligatorio de Salud (POS). En el caso del régimen subsidiado, se evidencia una tendencia a la igualación de ingresos y gastos, aunque se reconocen presiones sobre la sostenibilidad, resultado de la disminución del ritmo de crecimiento de las fuentes de financiación y el incremento en la demanda por atenciones costosas

ABSTRACT

In poor rural communities, access to basic health care is often severely limited by inadequate supply as well as financial barriers to seeking care. National policies may introduce social health insurance, but these are likely to begin with the salaried public and private sector workers while the informal sector population may be the last to be covered. Community initiatives to generate health care financing require a complex development process. This paper covers attempts to develop such schemes in rural populations in Guatemala and the Philippines through non-government organizations and notes the major factors which have contributed to unequal progress in the two schemes. The scheme of the Association por Salud de Barillas (ASSABA) in Guatemala was not sufficiently established as an administrative body at the conceptual stage and there was no clear national policy on health care financing. By the time the necessary action was taken, local conflicts hindered progress. In the Philippines, the ORT Health Plus Scheme (OHPS) was implemented during the period of legislation of a national health insurance act. The appraisal after three years of operation shows that OPHS has made health care affordable and accessible to the target population, composed mainly of low and often unstable income families in rural areas. The major success factors are probably the administrative structure provided by a cooperative and controls in the delivery system and in expenditures, through the salaried primary health care team, referral process and the capitation agreement for hospital-based services. The proliferation of such schemes could benefit from national guidelines, a formal accreditation process and an umbrella organization to provide assistance in design, training and information services, involving government, non-government and academic institutions as an integral part of the development process.
