In recent years, the concern for policies that achieve effective universal health coverage has been growing, as shown eloquently by the institutional documents of the World Health Organization and Pan American Health Organization. According to them, universal health coverage means that the entire population has access to appropriate health benefits of promotion, prevention, cure and rehabilitation when needed, at an affordable cost. From this perspective, progress towards universal health access and coverage requires efforts to overcome exclusion, inequity and barriers to access, as well as timely use of comprehensive health services.It is difficult to achieve the announced goals without adequate regulation of the health markets. This requires social consensus, rules, adherence and a range of tools and approaches that may include financial incentives, accreditation, licensing, hiring and handling of claims. Reaching consensus on health system objectives arises from a dialogue between institutions and leaders, along with the participation of a range of actors such as professional associations, corporate providers, unions, academia, civil society organizations, user representatives and governmental institutions.The objective of this paper is to explore the themes of analysis to be taken into account in public-private relations that underlie the processes of transformation of health systems in the Americas and the corresponding challenges in terms of articulation and regulation in the sector. |

I28-R145-2430_oai2026-02-09 Centrángolo, Oscar Goldschmit, Ariela 2022-11-25 In recent years, the concern for policies that achieve effective universal health coverage has been growing, as shown eloquently by the institutional documents of the World Health Organization and Pan American Health Organization. According to them, universal health coverage means that the entire population has access to appropriate health benefits of promotion, prevention, cure and rehabilitation when needed, at an affordable cost. From this perspective, progress towards universal health access and coverage requires efforts to overcome exclusion, inequity and barriers to access, as well as timely use of comprehensive health services.It is difficult to achieve the announced goals without adequate regulation of the health markets. This requires social consensus, rules, adherence and a range of tools and approaches that may include financial incentives, accreditation, licensing, hiring and handling of claims. Reaching consensus on health system objectives arises from a dialogue between institutions and leaders, along with the participation of a range of actors such as professional associations, corporate providers, unions, academia, civil society organizations, user representatives and governmental institutions.The objective of this paper is to explore the themes of analysis to be taken into account in public-private relations that underlie the processes of transformation of health systems in the Americas and the corresponding challenges in terms of articulation and regulation in the sector. En los últimos años la preocupación por las políticas que logren alcanzar la efectiva cobertura universal de salud ha sido creciente, como lo muestran con elocuencia diferentes documentos institucionales de la Organización Mundial de la Salud y la Organización Panamericana de la Salud. Allí se señala que la cobertura universal en salud significa que toda la población tenga acceso a prestaciones de salud apropiadas de promoción, prevención, cura y rehabilitación cuando las necesite y a un costo asequible. Desde esta perspectiva, el avance hacia el acceso universal a la salud y la cobertura universal de salud requiere esfuerzos para superar la exclusión, la inequidad y las barreras al acceso y uso oportuno de servicios de salud integrales.Difícilmente puedan alcanzarse las metas anunciadas sin una adecuada regulación de los mercados de salud. Esta requiere de un consenso social, reglas, adherencia y una gama de herramientas y enfoques que pueden incluir incentivos financieros y desincentivos, acreditación, licencias, contratación y manejo de reclamos. Alcanzar un consenso sobre los objetivos del sistema de salud, adicionalmente, surge de un diálogo entre las instituciones y los líderes, junto con la participación de una gama de actores como asociaciones profesionales, proveedores corporativos, sindicatos, academia, organizaciones de la sociedad civil, representantes de usuarios e instituciones gubernamentales.El objetivo del presente trabajo consiste en explorar los ejes de análisis a tener en cuenta en los tipos de relaciones público privado que subyacen en los procesos de transformación de los sistemas de Salud en las Américas y los correspondientes desafíos en términos de articulación y de regulación en el sector. application/pdf https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/DT-IIEP/article/view/2430 spa Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política (IIEP UBA-CONICET) https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/DT-IIEP/article/view/2430/3182 Documentos de trabajo del Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política; Núm. 40 (2019): Documento de trabajo del Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política UBA CONICET; 1-26 Working Papers series at Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política; No. 40 (2019): Working paper of Interdisciplinary Institute of Political Economy of Buenos Aires UBA CONICET; 1-26 2451-5728 regulación sistema de salud sector privado regulation health system private health system Regulation needs of the private health sector in Latin America: Notes for the debate Necesidades de regulación del sector privado en salud en América Latina: Apuntes para el debate info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=dociiep&d=2430_oai |
