The complementary health sector is currently dealing with the increasing legalization of health in Brazil. The great challenge for judges is to understand that a decision in a particular case can jeopardize the entire system and the beneficiaries who support it.
That’s what he points out Vera ValenteExecutive Director of the National Federation for Complementary Health (FenaSaúde). And she spoke about the subject in an interview with the series “Grandes Temas, Grandes Nomes do Direito”, which is shown by the online magazine. Counsel It has been on display since May. In it, some of the main figures in the law deal with the most relevant topics of the present time.
According to Vera, the regulation of the complementary health sector needs to be updated, as the current law is 25 years old. Hence, regulation is needed to help the sector maintain the 50 million beneficiaries, as well as bring in new beneficiaries.
And remember, complementary health helps mitigate public health effects and allows the resources of the common system to be applied only to citizens who depend on it. Thus, good regulation “can not only achieve sustainability”, but also improve the Brazilian health system as a whole.
However, the Executive Director of FenaSaúde identifies legislative initiatives that have a negative impact on the complementary health sector and harm its sustainability. It notes that regulation “could kick the beneficiaries out of the system” if it leads to an increase in the costs involved.
