EXTENSION DE LA COBERTURA DE LOS SERVICIOS DE SALUD
Abstract
It is a significant honor for me to have the opportunity to address such a select group of participants to present a topic that constitutes in itself and at the mere reading of its name “EXTENSION OF HEALTH CARE COVERAGE” a great challenge that we must seriously face and that we have the obligation in justice and ethics to fulfill.
Many efforts have been made at the technical level to achieve this objective in the last decades, however, the achievements obtained have not always been proportional to the efforts in all countries and what is more painful to recognize, in some cases there has been a tendency to deterioration, which forces to rethink conceptual and administrative schemes and possibly to relocate the Health System in front of the macrosystem. It is obvious to say, then, that this challenge will not only be met by the design of modern and audacious administrative patterns, but that it requires the incessant search for mechanisms in each country, which, although they may have similar global philosophical conceptions, must take into account a real diagnosis of their level of health and the conditioning factors that cause it, whether sanitary, educational, cultural and developmental, as well as the different types of resources they have and can arbitrate for the next twenty years.
