Abstract

El presente documento evalúa los determinantes del acceso a los servicios médicos en Colombia con datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Calidad de Vida del año 2012, considerando características de la oferta y la demanda de salud conjuntamente. Se encontró que el acceso a los servicios médicos se redujo en Colombia entre 1997 y 2012. Este comportamiento fue desigual al interior de las regiones: Antioquia y la región Oriental experimentaron un aumento en el indicador, mientras que las regiones Caribe, Centro, Bogotá, San Andrés, Providencia y Santa Catalina, Orinoquía y Amazonía registraron una disminución. Los resultados de los modelos probit muestran que las características de la demanda explican en mayor medida la probabilidad de acceso que las características de la oferta. Por último, se evidencian diferencias regionales significativas en el acceso para el 2012.
