RESUMO
O artigo expõe as mudanças das regras de reajuste das contraprestações por faixas etárias assim como as mudanças demográficas observadas entre 1998 e 2008. Avaliam-se, através do cálculo de indicadores de envelhecimento e da construção de pirâmides etárias, se as mudanças demográficas e a regulação provocaram alguma alteração na adesão da população jovem à saúde suplementar. Os indicadores mostram o envelhecimento populacional entre os beneficiários de planos de saúde, em especial entre os com planos de contratação individual, e também que isso não implicou abandono da saúde suplementar pelos jovens.
ABSTRACT
The paper exposes the changes in rules of price readjustment of health plans by age thresholds and demographic changes observed between 1998 and 2008. By calculating aging indicators and building population pyramids, it assesses whether the demographic changes coupled with the regulation caused any alteration in young people subscribing to supplementary healthcare plans. The indicators reveal the aging trend of beneficiaries of health plans, especially among those contracted individually, and also that this has not resulted in young people quitting supplementary healthcare plans.
