50 Basic sanitation in Brazil – Impacts on health A ccording to the World Health Organization (WHO), basic sanitation is a key factor to promote health, the environment and maintenance of social well-being. The lack of basic sanitation contributes to a number of issues related to public health, which reflects especially on the child mortality rates in the poorest areas, directly impacting the popula- tion’s life expectancy. Poor sanitation conditions also contribute to the develop- ment of tropical diseases, such as Dengue, Zika and Chikungunya, because they are transmissible via proliferation of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. In Brazil, over a third of the population lives in homes without the sewage sys- tems. According to the Summary of Social Indicators (SIS) released by IBGE, over 74.2 million Brazilians live in homes in this condition, which corresponds to 35.7% of the total population. From this total, 32.3 million (79.3%) live in the North and Graph 14 Ratio of people living in homes without a sewage system via collection network, pluvial drainage or septic tank connected to the network (2018) Source: IBGE, National Household Sample Survey 2018.

14.2 million (57.1%) in the Northeast. In the state o Piauí, for example, around 93.0% of 51 the population lives in homes without sewage systems. On the other hand, in São Paulo this ratio is of only 7.7% of the population. On a preliminary basis, a negative association can be observed between the population’s life expectancy by state and the ratio of people that live in homes without sewage system. The better the condition of sewage system, the bigger will be the life expectancy. This cor- relation is naturally associated with other factors, such as income, education, among other human development indicators. The lack of proper basic sanitation results in the occurrence of thousands of hospitalizations due to Diseases Related to Poor Sanitation (DSRAI) that can be transmitted via fecal-oral route, insect vector, water, via hygiene, geohelmints and teniasis. Therefore, the universal access to water and sewage system could consid- erably reduce the number of hospitalizations, deaths from infections, number of work leave, among other positive impacts13, such as the social welfare.

CID-10 – The International Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (also known as the International Classification of Disease – CID 10) is published by the World Health Organization (WHO) and its goal is to standardize the codification of diseases and other health related issues. ICD 10 provides codes related to the classification of diseases and a variety of signs, symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or diseases. A unique category is given to every health condition, which corresponds to an ICD 10 code.

61 The pandemic has found economic activity in a period of stagnation in Brazil T he global economic environment has been through a drastic change of per- spective since the emergence of the new coronavirus in China. In March 11th, 2020, as the disease was gaining territory in many countries in all of the continents, WHO declared a pandemic situation because of Covid-19. The Covid-19 pandemic is a worldwide phenom- enon unprecedented in the history of the last cen- tury. The government actions were fairly slow in order to delay the dissemination process and allow a proper adjustment of the health care systems to face the disease, resulting in extreme isolation and social distancing measures. The economic impact have occurred mainly in China and have rapidly reached the financial mar- kets worldwide. There was a generalized decrease in the stock exchange, appreciation of the Ameri- can currency and depreciation of many commodi- ties, especially with the oil, given the probability of retraction in the world’s economic activity and a high level of uncertainty about the epidemiological impacts related to Covid-19.

Covid-19 has caused a global recession with 63 deep effects in many countries. Although the outspread of the pandemic are still uncertain, it is possible to estimate a sharp downturn in most part of the emerging markets, the devel- oping markets and in the low-income coun- tries. Even in face of the adoption of monetary and fiscal policies, we hope that the reduction of per capita income in this set of countries lead millions of people to extreme poverty. It is estimated that approximately 71 million17 peo- ple end up in this condition all over the world. In the worst-case scenario, this number can reach around 142 million people with an aver- age daily income of US$ 1.9.

66 Economic In Brazil, the pandemic arrived at a activity stagnation period of the economic ac- tivity, with optimistic growth perspec- tives after the approval of the welfare reform and the advance on discussions surrounding the tax reform. However, the results of the GDP in 2019 have revealed that the economy’s growth pace is still slow. The growth of 1.1% in comparison to last year was below the numbers registered in the two previ- ous years and indicated that the level of activity was still at a slow pace even before the effects of Covid-19 on the economic activity.

Supplementary Health Market in Brazil



Supplementary Health Market in Brazil

75 The health is mainly driven by the private expenditures in Brazil T he health market in Brazil handles over R$ 650 billion per year, with significant participation of the private sector, which corresponds to nearly R$ 370 billion of the total expenditure with goods and health services. In this scenario, there is a significant participation of the supplementary health market through the offer of pri- vate health plans and insurance, espe- cially the ones hired by companies and families. This way, the dynamics of the market is essential in the development and complementation of the health ser- vices offer, besides those offered by the public health system in the country.

76 Operators The supplementary health market totaled 717 op- erators of health plans in activity and with beneficia- ries, and 269 exclusive dental operators according the data of National Agency of Supplementary Health (ANS) in July 2020. In this way. This way, it is possible to observe a significant participation of medical coop- eratives, with 279 active operators and 38.9% of the market, followed by the group medicines, with 241 op- erators and 33.6% of the total operators.

The introduction of the regula- 77 tory mark has brought immediate results in the sector, among them there is the decrease in the num- ber of operators and the market consolidation, with operators that are able to address the set of reg- ulatory requirements and maintain the economic-financial balance of its activities in face of the challenge imposed by the demographic and epidemiological change. In spite of the decrease in the number of operators, it is important to high- light that this market tends to be regionally centered, since it de- mands the existence of economies of scale and scope.

80 Average payment period The average payment period indicates the average period, in days, that a health insurance operator takes to pay for events already re- ported by healthcare ben- eficiaries in laboratories, hospitals, medical clinics and doctor’s offices. We emphasize that this period reflects directly in the cash flow and maintenance of the activities of the suppli- ers. The longer periods in- dicate that operators are financing their businesses with resources that should be destined to suppliers.

In the last four years, the number of beneficiaries of healthcare plans remained vir- tually stable, in sync with the growth pace of the economic activity. It is likely that in 2020 the sector will suffer a retraction due to the developments of Covid-19 and end the year in level below 46.5 million beneficiaries. 20. The term “beneficiary” refers to a binding contract with the healthcare plans, and it may include ties to one individual.

This reduction is particularly associated with the regulatory rules that often make the sustainability of this type of hiring unfeasible in the long term, consider- ing the setting of the adjustment index by the regulator. This way, it was possible to observe a sharp reduction of the offer and an increase of the values charged by this type of plan in the health market. In the business healthcare plans, the de- crease was of 0.7% in the last year; however, it shows a decrease of 1.6% in the last five years. In the collective plans by membership, there was an increase of 0.9% and a decrease of 4.1% in the same basis of comparison.

Total health expenditure

99 Supplementary Health Market in Brazil Health expenditures correspond to nearly 9.24% of the GDP I n Brazil, the share on expendi- tures with health activities have reached 9.24% of the GDP, which represented nearly R$ 608.3 bil- lion in 2017 (considering 2020 values). Form this total, 3.85% were spent by the Government (R$ 253.7 billion) and 5.39% by families and non-profit insti- tutions (R$ 354.6 billion). This percent- age as proportion of the GDP is similar to other developed countries that also have similar health systems, such as the United Kingdom (9.6%) and Spain (8.9%). However, the composition of health expenditure in Brazil is very dis- tinct and counts with a significant par- ticipation of the private sector.
