Abstract
El artículo realiza una descripción de los aspectos institucionales, mecanismos y fuentes de financiación del sistema de salud en Colombia. Utilizando modelos de equilibrio general, el estudio evalúa los efectos de diversos riesgos que enfrenta el sistema de salud, en las finanzas del sector, el déficit fiscal y algunas variables macroeconómicas. Estos riesgos incluyen el impacto del cambio demográfico, caracterizado por el envejecimiento de la población, los cambios en los patrones de morbilidad, especialmente relacionados con el aumento de enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles y la adopción de nuevas tecnologías médicas. Además, explora el impacto de la informalidad y del crecimiento económico, en la necesidad de recursos fiscales para el sector. El estudio encuentra que el país podría experimentar un incremento significativo en el gasto público necesario para financiar el sistema de salud, equivalente a 1,9% del PIB para el año 2030. El articulo también presenta estimaciones de medidas de eficiencia y de economías de escala para las empresas promotoras de salud y de las Instituciones Prestadoras de Servicios de Salud, resaltando la importancia de la eficiencia en el uso de los recursos del sistema para mitigar las presiones sobre el gasto público. **** ABSTRACT: The article provides an overview of institutional aspects, mechanisms, and funding sources in the Colombia's healthcare system. Through the use of general equilibrium models, the study assesses the impacts of various risks faced by the healthcare system, considering their effects on sector finances, fiscal deficit, and macroeconomic variables. These risks encompass the implications of demographic changes, characterized by population aging, shifts in morbidity patterns—especially linked to the rise of non-communicable diseases—and the adoption of new medical technologies. Additionally, the study explores the effects of informality and economic growth on the fiscal resource needs within the sector. It concludes that the country could undergo a significant increase in necessary public spending to finance the healthcare system in Colombia, amounting to 1.9% of GDP by 2030. The article also presents estimates of efficiency measures and economies of scale for healthcare promotion companies and Institutions Providing Health Services, underscoring the significance of resource efficiency within the system to alleviate pressures on public spending.
