RESUMO

This thesis analyzes the trajectory, challenges and prospects of private health insurance regulation in Brazil in a context of changing of hegemony and relationship between economics and politics. This scenario of economy and political change is the basis for the Brazilian State agenda on health regulation. This work analyzes the worlds economic and political landscape in order to identify its influence on Brazil and on the Brazilian healthcare industry. Based on this framework, we develop a retrospective analysis of the major private health insurance regulatory policies enacted by the Brazilian National Health Agency ANS. In this way, a database was built not only for research thesis, but also for later studies. Subsequent analytical study has identified three different waves in the Brazilian regulation trajectory. Results were, then, checked by all current and former ANS directors. This work, also analyses the effects of those three waves and discusses the main challenges of health insurance regulation agenda in Brazil. It is worth noting that discussions of future regulatory policies in Brazil take place on the grounds of critical changes in policy, power and hegemony over the world. Lastly, this work provides contribution to the development of the theme and suggests enhancements to improve planning, management and regulation of health, seeking more harmonious and efficient public-private relations in the field of disease prevention and health promotion.
