ANS begins regulatory process on discount cards and related products
The National Supplementary Health Agency (ANS) has taken a decisive step toward building a new regulatory framework for the sector. In view of the expansion of the market for discount cards, prepaid services and related alternatives, the agency opened a public call and established an internal committee to study the subject on Friday (17).
At the same time, the Board of Directors decided to discontinue the regulatory sandbox proposal aimed at elective consultations and exams. The assessment is that efforts should be focused on the discount card market, owing to its social impact and the need for an integrated approach.
