ANS suspends the marketing of 19 health plans

Nineteen health plans had their commercialization temporarily suspended by the National Supplementary Health Agency (ANS). The announcement was made this Thursday (15), in a note published on the agency’s website. The reason given was the complaints related to assistance coverage. “The measure is part of the Service Guarantee Monitoring, which regularly monitors the sector’s performance and works to protect consumers. In this cycle, ANS determined the suspension of 19 plans from six operators due to complaints made in the third quarter”, explained ANS. The ban on sales begins to take effect on the 22nd. According to the agency, 387,894 beneficiaries are protected with the measure, as these plans can only be sold again to new customers if the operators present an improvement in the monitoring result. In addition to the suspensions, the ANS also released the list of plans that may be marketed again. In this cycle, 46 plans from 11 operators will have their sale released by the Service Guarantee Monitoring. The list of affected plans can be found on the ANS website.
