About this statute

Preamble of Law 1797 of 2016, which states that it regulates the operation of Colombia’s General Social Security Health System and issues other provisions. This article states that the law aims to set financial and operational measures to help clean up sector debts and improve resource flow and service quality in the health social security system. This article allocates SGP health resources among public health actions, the subsidized regime, and other health-service funding, and says some surplus funds may be used for old unpaid health-service debts or, if none exist, for labor formalization in the relevant ESEs. Los recursos excedentes del saneamiento de aportes patronales deben aplicarse primero al pago de ciertas deudas en salud; si no hay deudas, pueden destinarse al saneamiento fiscal y financiero de la red pública. Departments and districts may use surplus and uncommitted ceded-rent funds for specified health-related expenses and, if no such debts exist, for certain health infrastructure and financing purposes.
