Keywords:
Amparo, Right to health, Health providers, High cost medicationsAbstract
The amparo action regulated in article 43 of the National Constitution is the
ideal judicial means for people to obtain high-cost medicines and treatments due to the
refusals of social, mutual or medicine companies. To delimit the scope of the constitutional
process, and set the scope of the benefits to be covered under the Mandatory Medical
Plan, requires that legal operators exercise extreme precautions to protect the right to
health, and prevent the excessive granting of resolutions in favour of amparists.
