Public spending on social sectors including
health has increased…
In real terms, public
spending on health
increased 88% since
1995
Fastest growth:
DR (336%)
Venezuela (244%)
El Salvador (161%)
Chile (112%)
Brazil (98%)
Mexico (71%)

What can we expect in the future then?
Long-term fiscal projections and simulations
Identify factors that can be modified via public
policy
Allows for ex ante identification of inter-temporal
inconsistencies in needs and revenues
Illustrative analyses
Models that allow for modification of assumptions
6
Methods
Estimate probability of acquiring disease and seeking
care
Assume:
Current patterns of screening and treatment stay
constant (improbable)
Prices of services and medical technology in relation to
general price levels remain constant
Use annual projections of age structure, education,
labor market participation
Assign probabilities to individuals, assign expenditure
to each person

Key messages
Even under conservative assumptions, public
spending on health will grow more rapidly in
the future, pushed by aging, risk factors and
technology.
Labor market participation and growth can
slow the spending trajectory, as can policy
measures related to risk factors.
Benefits and access expansion should be
accompanied by policies to maximize value for
money and contain current and future costs.
14
Conclusions
Only a few Latin American countries conduct
long-term fiscal projections in support of social
policy decisions, none as a matter of routine
Without LT projections, can’t understand implications
of policies and trends on public finances, can’t
manage expectations and can’t maximize welfare.
Possible to do but merit greater methodological
development, more and better data.
HH surveys on behavior, disease and utilization
Spending and cost by episode of illness

Identificar los factores históricos que
determinen el gasto publico en salud:
Demanda: demografía, epidemiologia, participación
laboral, niveles educativos, ingresos, factores de
riesgo (tabaco, sedentarismo, alcohol), lugar de
residencia, utilización de servicios de salud.
Proyecciones demográficas oficiales.
Encuestas de hogares con módulos sobre salud.
Oferta: niveles de detección y tratamiento, precios,
productividad, calidad de la oferta, 
gasto.
Datos administrativos oficiales sobre el gasto en salud .
