NewzThe Colombian Constitutional Court has ruled that the administration of President Gustavo Petro failed to comply with three specific mandates regarding the Unidad de Pago por Capitación (UPC), the per-capita payment used to fund the national healthcare system. The court determined that the Ministry of Health did not meet requirements concerning the calculation, sufficiency, and equalization of these funds for the current period.
This ruling addresses long-standing concerns regarding the financial sustainability of the healthcare system and the government's methodology in determining resource allocation. By failing to adhere to the court's previous directives, the administration faces increased scrutiny over its management of healthcare funding and its adherence to judicial mandates intended to ensure the stability of medical services.
