SOLYDES Foundation Upholds its Commitment to Health in Bolivia.

In Bolivia, a large portion of the population lacks timely access to medical services or health insurance that ensures their well-being. To address this reality, SOLYDES Foundation proposes initiatives focused on prevention.

In collaboration with Pro Mujer NGO, SOLYDES Foundation has established InnovaSalud S.A., a pioneering entity aimed at improving public health through primary care and disease prevention, offering accessible healthcare services and prepaid health insurance.

The health landscape in Bolivia presents significant challenges, particularly regarding communicable and non-communicable diseases. According to data from the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO):

Non-communicable diseases such as hypertension and diabetes remain significant challenges. Despite improvements in some indicators, Bolivia still has a higher-than-average premature mortality rate from preventable and treatable causes compared to the regional standard.

The Importance of Primary Healthcare

Primary healthcare is the first point of contact between the population and health services, playing a critical role in disease prevention. This level of care addresses 80% of the most common health conditions.

With a strong emphasis on prevention, Fundación SOLYDES has served over 130,000 individuals through InnovaSalud. Through innovative initiatives, the foundation has demonstrated its relevance in promoting well-being, particularly in Bolivia’s most vulnerable communities.

SOLYDES' preventive approach aims to detect potential health issues early and address them promptly, avoiding further deterioration. This strategy not only improves patients' quality of life but also reduces costs associated with advanced treatments that could have been avoided.

Innovasalud: Preventive Healthcare and Accessible Services

InnovaSalud S.A. is a project driven by Fundación SOLYDES in partnership with Pro Mujer NGO, offering prepaid health insurance plans designed to protect users through preventive medicine and early detection of diseases.

Unlike traditional health insurance, InnovaSalud focuses on prevention, providing timely treatments and ensuring access to quality healthcare services at affordable costs.

Prepaid health plans allow users to access general medicine consultations and specialized services at conveniently located clinics, ensuring ease of access from home or work. This innovative model aims not only to expand healthcare coverage in Bolivia but also to shift public perception toward the importance of preventive medicine as a cornerstone of a healthy and active population.

Commitment to the Most Vulnerable

InnovaSalud stands apart from traditional healthcare services with its focus on technology, efficiency, and warm, patient-centered care. With modern infrastructure and innovative methods, it facilitates access to preventive and primary healthcare, ensuring quality services for users in vulnerable conditions.

One of the service’s main pillars is Primary Healthcare, which focuses on general medical consultations aimed at early detection and timely treatment of health issues.

By ensuring care is available at the right moment, InnovaSalud helps prevent complications that could arise from untreated conditions.

Challenges and Opportunities in the Healthcare Sector

The road to broader and more effective healthcare coverage in Bolivia is not without challenges. Issues like a lack of resources, disparities in access to services between rural and urban areas, and the need for greater awareness of the importance of preventive healthcare are obstacles that SOLYDES Foundation faces daily.

However, there are also significant opportunities. The growth of the urban population, increased access to information technologies, and rising demand for quality health services present a favorable outlook for the expansion of services like InnovaSalud.

SOLYDES Foundation is positioned to continue growing and expanding its impact in Bolivian society with an innovative approach that not only improves users' quality of life but also seeks to change the paradigm of healthcare in the country.

Through initiatives like those promoted by SOLYDES, a successful model of primary and preventive healthcare in Bolivia is emerging, especially for the most vulnerable populations. With a focus on quality, accessibility, and innovation, these initiatives are transforming how healthcare is perceived and accessed in the country. By improving the population's health, SOLYDES is helping build a healthier future for all.
