ODPV ANIM SULA HAPV AALR QUAL SEER YDUQS COGNA BLAU DASA
Yesterday, Brazil’s Lower House approved Constitutional Amendment (PEC) #27/2022, establishing
three measures aimed at financing the payment of the salary floors for nursing professionals at the state
and municipal levels: (i) defining the responsibility of the federal government to transfer resources for
the salary floors to states and municipalities that provide more than 60% of healthcare services via SUS
(Brazil’s public healthcare system); (ii) authorizing the surplus of the federal government’s public
accounts to be transferred to states and municipalities from 2023-2027; and (iii) authorizing states and
municipalities to breach the personnel spending limit of the Fiscal Responsibility Law (LRF) for ten years.
The PEC still needs to be approved by the Senate.
The LRF currently prohibits states and municipalities from spending more than 60% of recurring
revenues on personnel expenses. But the PEC approved by the Lower House authorizes the payment
of salary floors for nursing professionals to be excluded from this calculation. The PEC would have an
estimated cost of ~R$16bn for the federal government, but it would provide considerable flexibility for
paying the salary floors in the public sector.
A few months ago, an injunction issued by Supreme Court has temporarily suspended the
implementation of new minimum wages for nursing professionals (which had been approved by
Congress before). The decision was based on the fact that more clarification and studies were necessary
on the potential impacts of the new salaries on: (i) the solvency of states and municipalities, as no
financing solutions were defined (at that time); (ii) the sector’s employability, following several allegations
of mass layoffs, as the cost hike will impact the HC industry across the board; and (iii) the quality of HC
services in Brazil, in light of the reduction in the number nursing professionals and the resulting closure
of operational hospital beds.
With yesterday’s approval (which is still pending the analysis by the Senate), one of the obstacles
brought by the Supreme Court may have been resolved (the first one aforementioned). We must say,
however, that finding financing solutions also for the private segment should remain an issue for an
effective implementation of the salary floors for nursing professionals. It will be important to closely
monitor the political developments on financing solutions for the salary floors. For now, we keep our
sector preferences and still favor RDOR/SULA, HAPV, VVEO and MATD, which are all superbly
positioned to play the sector’s market growth and consolidation trend.
Although Amil´s plans represented half of Q3’s reactivations, it is still the HC operator with the largest #
of plans suspended in the year, to the tune of 87, of which 40 were already reactivated. For its part,
Unimed-Rio again featured in the list of suspended plans (accounting for the bulk), following recent
newsflow that it might be in financial difficulty.
The fact that sales of major Amil and Unimed-Rio HC plans remain suspended should keep benefiting
competitors, representing a growth for other dominant players in the Southeast HC market, mainly SULA
and now HAPV (via GNDI). We still favor HAPV, RDOR/SULA, VVEO, and MATD, which are all superbly
positioned to play the HC sector’s market growth and consolidation trend.
