This proposal has been very controversial, and has generated different opinions and discussions due to the complexity and importance of the issue. Although positive points of the Reform are highlighted, such as the creation of integrated service networks, improved surveillance, control and regulation of the system and the reduction of reimbursements, it is also considered that there has not been an adequate diagnosis of the public health situation in the country. This has created conceptual and operational gaps that make it difficult to guide decisions in this area. Therefore, doubts arise as to the real possibility of implementation of the proposal by the State.
