Abstract:

With the aim of systematizing the health private sector proposals related with the refor-mulation of the Brazilian health system, as well as contributing to the understanding of its meaning, an essay was conducted based in documentsthe Health Coalition In-stitute (Icos) published in the period2014 to 2018. The document content analysis was carried up guided by some concepts of Bourdieu, Coutinho and Labra. With the change in the correlation of forces resultingthe 2016 parliamentary coup, the pri-vate health sector\'s proposals gained visibility, which initially seemed to correspond to an update of its historical agenda but which are progressively changing to suit the new political and economic conjuncture. From then on, conditions of possibility were created for the protagonism of these entrepreneurs in the field of power in relation to sectoral reform and the formulation of health policies with repercussions related to the disruption of the Unified Health System (SUS). The contradictions between the discourse of de-fense of SUS by the entrepreneurs, and the privatizing concrete proposals may reveal a search for the symbolic profits associated with the defense of the public interests and of the universal.
