Abstract

This article aims to establish some difficulties presented in the Commission of Health Regulation (CRES, Comisión de Regulación en Salud) during its short period of operation and the need for a regulatory body separate from the Ministry of Health and Social Protection that has a more pluralistic, participatory and inclusive character. We mention that the National Council of Social Security in Health (CNSSS -Consejo Nacional de Seguridad Social en Salud) sought to correct certain problematic situations, among other things, by creating the CRES. However, the national government intended to liquidate the newly formed body as already hinted in Law 1438 of 2012. We conclude that despite difficulties in the regulatory function, the CRES was eventually liquidated. The creation of a body such as the CNSSS that has a wider and more equitable base and that includes all social, governmental, and private stakeholders is necessary. This can be deduced from the proposed Statutory Law No. 105 of 2012 of the Senate of the Republic, which was presented by various social forces.
