Did you know that health is understood as the prolongation of life and not only as the absence of diseases? In order to meet this definition of health in Ecuador, a program called ACCESS was created. This entity is in charge of the regulation and control of charges for medical care in Ecuador. They do things such as issuing operating permits for private and public medical establishments and regulate the rates of medical procedures in Ecuador. Despite the existence of this entity there are some fees that can not be controlled or regulated by ACCESS itself or other entities.
