Within the framework of the talks between the isapres, the Health Superintendence and the Executive branch after the Supreme Court ruling that ordered the insurers to apply the new factor table to their affiliates, President Gabriel Boric announced that next March he will present a bill that addresses the problems currently facing private health.
In this regard, the Government spokesperson, Camila Vallejo, clarified that although there is a ruling that must be complied with, one of the main concerns is the users of the isapres so that they do not remain adrift in the health system.

“There is a ruling now that must be complied with, and our concern as a Government is the users of the isapres and that is what we are going to try to protect at all events. For the same reason, we have discussed continuing to advance with a legislative strategy, so that, in March, Congress can count on a legal initiative that addresses this problem or that complements whatever the application of the ruling is,” the spokeswoman said.
However, Vallejo reaffirmed that the Executive’s plans are going to be focused on users, since “there is a concern. We talked about this issue in the Political Committee, we are taking it with great responsibility and prudence with what is happening, but the The priority of our Government is the protection and protection of users and their benefits, so that they do not feel abandoned by the State regarding their situation”
“We cannot forget that here there is a problem of judicialization of the business model of the isapres, there have been around two million protection appeals that users have won against the isapres,” concluded the Secretary of State.
