Determinantes de la equidad en el financiamiento de los medicamentos en Argentina: un estudio empírico

Abstract: Resumen Los medicamentos constituyen un alto porcentaje del gasto en salud de los hogares, por eso, tener un sistema progresivo de financiamiento de medicamentos es fundamental para lograr un sistema de salud equitativo. Se ha propuesto que los determinantes de la equidad en el financiamiento son socioeconómicos, demográficos y asociados a la intervención pública, sin embargo, se ha avanzado poco en su evaluación empírica y en la cuantificación de su importancia relativa.

“…The epidemiology of diseases in Argentina is likely influenced by its socioeconomic disparities, affecting different social groups and urban or rural areas disproportionately, and is characterized by illnesses commonly found in developed as well as in developing countries [41,42]. The basic structure of Argentinian health care is made up of three systems of health providers: (1) the public health care system, which is without cost to all subjects but is mostly used by uninsured individuals (about 34% of the population); (2) the social security system, employees and their family members (about 55% of the population); (3) and the private medical system (for about 10% of the population).…”

“…A 2017 public project from the Nation Ministry of Health aims to reform the whole health system, providing universal health care coverage, with digitalized personal history and free access to essential medication for all persons, but the Argentinian health system has been marked by a paradigmatic segmented organization. This fragmentation is characterized by the different local-regional, and provincial subsystems of health care [41,42]. This structure of health care poses many challenges to the equivalent distribution of PHC services provided to people throughout the country and also affects the referral system.…”

“…Con respecto a la financiación de medicamentos, Argentina cuenta con la Política Nacional de Medicamentos, donde se establece los elementos de regulación, generación y difusión de información y provisión gratuita únicamente de medicamentos esenciales.
