TOVAR-CUEVAS, Luis Miguel  e  ARRIVILLAGA-QUINTERO, Marcela. State of the Art in Access to Health Services Research in Colombia, 2000-2013: a Systematic Review. Rev. Gerenc. Polit. Salud [online]. 2014, vol.13, n.27, pp.12-26. ISSN 1657-7027.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.rgyps13-27.eaia.

This study shows a systematic review of research works on the topic of access to health services in Colombia in the period 2000-2013. The databases used were Ebsco, Jstor, Proquest, ISI Web of Science, scíelo and Cochrane. Results showed that most of the studies were carried out between 2006 and 2011. The majority of them analyzed rural areas, and a third part consisted on analysis of national data. Thematically, they were focused on equality in the use of services, some vulnerable population groups, access to some specific services, as well as the implications of the law 100 of 1993 on access to health services. Results suggested that Colombian researchers need to improve their information sources, and that the theoretical frameworks must be adapted to the context. There is the need of more studies that address in a more comprehensive way all aspects involved in access.
