Abstract

This article circumscribes to the reflexion generated by the construction of a Health Insurance financial Model for the people diagnosed with VIH in Colombia. “A disease that can affect us all†in the frame of the general population Human Rights, and for the people suffering from VIH/SIDA in particular, who have a broad protection from the State, added to the existence of a wide legislation in Colombia inspired on the frame of global agreements. This deliberation emerges from the revision of the normativity emitted within national and international contexts. The reflexive exercise on the Rules duty to be evolves around the proposal of a financial Model demonstrating the viability of offering Individual Health Insurance to people with VIH where a mixed methodology will be developed meaning the inclusion of qualitative and quantitative approaches. Quantitative, as it will include data produced by the grounds on the construction of indexed statistic graphs to determinant variables; Qualitative, because of the commitment and social awareness towards the problem faced not only by the carriers of the disease but for the society in general. The poll conducted with three thousand patients who live with VIH, allowed us to detect the virus behavior with punctual information confirmed by ONUSIDA and discard the myth around life average for a person with VIH/SIDA.
