"Flexibility". Confederation of insurers wants health plans in Brazil more like Portugal

The article discusses the proposal by Brazil's National Confederation of Insurance Companies (CNSeg) to adopt a more flexible health insurance model similar to Portugal's system. CNSeg president Dyogo Oliveira argues that the current Brazilian model is overly rigid and expensive, with no annual coverage limits, unlike Portugal where coverage is capped at a specified amount. He suggests that a more personalized approach would allow customers to choose plans tailored to their needs, potentially lowering costs. The discussion took place during the XIV Lisbon Forum, supported by the Getulio Vargas Foundation. The article highlights the disparity in pricing between the two countries while emphasizing the need for greater flexibility in Brazil’s health insurance sector.
