Abstract

This jurisprudential analysis seeks to foster a discussion about the State’s duty to provide public health, presented in the 1988 Federal Constitution, confronting supplementary health. In this perspective, are glimpsed the advent of supplementary health and the obligations linked to the old contracts and the contracts signed after its regulation. Therefore, this debate is guided by a deductive method, from a bibliographical approach. The transfer of responsibility was analyzed through an administrative procedure called Reimbursement to SUS. In this scenario, some considerations on the subject are pointed out based on the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazilian Superior Court of Justice and Brazilian Supreme Court.
