Sistemas de salud

Sistemas de salud are structured organizations and resources designed to deliver healthcare services to populations. They include hospitals, clinics, healthcare professionals, policies, and financing methods. These systems aim to provide accessible, effective, and equitable care, addressing preventive, curative, and palliative needs. Different countries organize their health systems in various ways—publicly funded, private, or a mix—shaping how healthcare is financed and accessed. Overall, the goal of a health system is to promote health, treat illnesses, and improve the quality of life for the community it serves.
