Although Chile achieved positive overall health results at the regional level, this country maintains a health system segmented by risk and income, which stands out for its levels of inequity.
A presidential commission commission commissioned in 2014 posed two scenarios for the healthcare system according to the time horizon over which its results were expected.
For the long term, he proposed a vision of where the Chilean health system should be heading, agreeing on a single public insurance system.
For the short term, he proposed a transition that consisted of regulating the Pension Health Institutions so that they would operate under social security rules and principles.
