RESUMO
O presente artigo apresenta o distanciamento entre os apontamentos doutrinários e as decisões do Supremo Tribunal Federal no tocante ao direito prestacional à saúde. Para tanto, são realizadas revisão bibliográfica e análise do conteúdo de decisões do STF em relação ao direito prestacional à saúde. De um lado, a doutrina constitucional define o custo dos direitos como um elemento a ser considerado na teoria dos direitos fundamentais; de outro, a jurisprudência do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) descarta-o como elemento relevante para a decisão que venha a adotar. O descompasso entre doutrina e jurisprudência implica o prejuízo de uma interpretação constitucionalmente adequada dos direitos sociais prestacionais.
ABSTRACT
The current study presents the discrepancy between theoretical declarations and Brazilian Federal Supreme Court decisions regarding the constitutional right to health. Therefore, this study conducts a review and analysis of the literature and content on Supreme Court decisions regarding the constitutional right to health care. On the one hand, the constitution definesthe cost of rights as a factor to be considered in the theorization of fundamental rights; on the other hand, the jurisprudence of the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court discards cost asa relevant element when deciding. The disconnection between doctrine and jurisprudence affects a constitutionally adequate interpretation on constitutionally given social rights.
