Changes in Fonasa with the Short Rule of Ispress
With the aim of modernizing FONASA, the short legislation proposes the creation of a supplementary coverage modality, based on which system contributors can voluntarily enter into private insurance contracts, mediated by a public body, allowing them access to private providers. Will provide: clinics, medical centers, laboratories and others.
Those beneficiaries of FONASA will be able to access a coverage plan made up of private providers, with guaranteed minimum co-pays through payment of an additional 7% community premium per covered.

The difference is now, unlike other moments in time, young people are choosing Fonaasa.”Camilo Cid, director of FONASA, explained.
