Resumen

Kenneth J. Arrow es uno de los economistas más destacados del siglo XX. Sus preocupaciones sobre el equilibrio competitivo y la optimalidad bajo condiciones de incertidumbre lo llevaron a publicar en 1963 el artículo “Uncertainty and the welfare economics of medical care”, reconocido como la génesis de la Economía de la Salud. En este ensayo se rinde un homenaje a esta obra, develando el plan intelectual para el análisis de bienestar de las prestaciones médicas, discutiendo la vigencia de los planteamientos originales y destacando sus principales implicaciones en cuanto a los temas objeto de análisis y discusión. La tesis central de Arrow sobre la imposibilidad del mercado para alcanzar una asignación eficiente sigue vigente debido, especialmente, a la incertidumbre respecto a la incidencia de enfermedades. Además del debate sobre Estado-mercado, a partir de Arrow se discuten las implicaciones de asuntos como la información asimétrica, el riesgo moral y las normas sociales.
