SAO PAULO - The portability of health plans, which completed a month of expiry on Friday (15), will not have the same effect of number portability (telephony). The statement is the leading expert in consumer law, Arthur Rollo.
In his view, besides being restricted to a very small number of consumers, 13% or six million users, the procedures for exercising the right to change the plan without the need to meet new waiting periods are difficult to be understood and have left consumers confused.
Care
As an example, counsel cites the condition of compatibility between the plans of origin and destination, which states that the new insurance is price, accommodation and geographic coverage equal to or less than the former.
Before that, he recommends that consumers can benefit from the portability needs to act with caution, given that the standard of care operators usually vary greatly and a hasty change of plan may bring further problems, and feel that if the User is sorry, have to wait two years to change the plan again.
"The NSA (National Agency of Supplemental Health) does not compare the standards of care plans, such as the hospitals, laboratories, clinics, doctors etc SUS. In addition to reporting on the requirements of portability, consumers should find out whether networks of care are similar, because many times the price decrease may represent a reduction in quality.
