Abstract
Health is essential for achieving the three
dimensions of sustainable development: inclusive social development, economic
development, and environmental sustainability. The migration phenomenon,
violence, and food emergencies during migratory journeys, non-communicable
health problems such as essential hypertension, lipoprotein disorders, diabetes
mellitus, and hypothyroidism, among others, pose additional challenges to
health systems. The combination of the COVID-19 pandemic and various concurrent
crises creates an unprecedented and alarming situation that threatens the
achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outlined in the 2030
Agenda for Sustainable Development in Latin American countries. Several key
health indicators, including those related to nutrition, mental health, and
maternal mortality, among others, have shown significant declines. This paper
examines recent trends in health spending in Latin America and analyzes some of
the intercurrent factors that influence the coverage and adequacy of health
services.
