Fernando Kibes, Executive Director of Procon-SP, sent a letter to the Minister of Health, Marcelo Quiroga, this Tuesday (27) requesting that the bag be imposed on ANS (National Agency for Complementary Health). Reducing adjustments in health insurance rates.

The agency does not interfere with setting pricing for group plans, but Kibes is proposing a cap of 8.14% increase, the level that ANS currently allows for individual or family plans.

To the minister Procon-SP has repeated what it has been saying in recent weeks, When pressure increased to fight re-adaptation. The agency says the operators have not been given transparency in disclosing the costs that justify the increases ANS did not request evidence of increased expenditures.

“To say that there will be free negotiations is to turn a blind eye to reality and allow operators to unilaterally fix the new values,” wrote Capez in the request sent to the minister.

On Monday (26), Procon-SP filed a public civil suit against several operators, requesting to provide information within 30 days on the impact of the 2020 accident rate loss on group plan adjustments, and obtained a court order. .
