RESUMEN
La reforma al sistema de salud colombiano, incorporada hace más de quince años, ha sido objeto de múltiples análisis y en la actualidad parece estar afrontando una de sus más graves crisis, lo que ha llevado a que desde diferentes espacios sociales, profesionales y académicos se sugieran múltiples cambios, que van desde ajustes muy variados hasta la eliminación total del modelo. A partir de múltiples resultados de investigación, obtenidos en los últimos diez años, se presenta un balance de lo que puede haber sido central en la problemática actual y se propone que aunque el ajuste debe realizarse a partir de un gran consenso nacional, es razonable continuar con un modelo de aseguramiento siempre y cuando se recojan los aprendizajes alcanzados, con el fin de tomar las precauciones y medidas de control necesarias para impedir una nueva frustración en el propósito de alcanzar una salud más equitativa para todos.
ABSTRACT
Colombian healthcare system reform (incorporated over fifteen years ago) has been the frequent object of analysis and the system currently seems to be facing one of its most serious crises. This has led to large-scale change being suggested from many social, professional and academic spaces, ranging from varied adjustments to the healthcare-related insurance model's total elimination. Research over the last ten years has suggested a balance of what may have been central to the current problem and has suggested that, although adjustment must be made from a wide national consensus, it is reasonable to maintain a healthcare-related insurance model as long as this reflects the learning achieved to date. Precautions and the necessary control measures must be taken to impede a fresh wave of frustration regarding the aim of ensuring a healthcare system which would be more equitable for all.
