            Abstract

            El envejecimiento de la población ocurrido en los países ricos se está produciendo ahora en algunos países en vías de desarrollo. En América Latina, todo indica que este proceso se desarrollará más rápido, con peores estados de salud y menos recursos económicos que los de los países que hoy disponen de un sistema de cuidados a la dependencia. Chile es uno de los países latinoamericanos que se acerca más rápidamente a un punto de quiebre que presione la implementación de políticas formales de cuidados. Por ello, es necesario iniciar un proceso de evaluación de costes e impacto de estas posibles políticas. El objetivo de esta investigación fue realizar una estimación de coste de un sistema inicial para el cuidado de personas dependientes en Chile. The ageing population in rich countries is now occurring in some developing countries. In Latin America, everything indicates that this process will develop faster, with worse health states and fewer economic resources than those in countries that now have a dependency care system. Chile is one of the fastest approaching Latin American countries to a breaking point that pushes for formal care policies. Therefore, it is necessary to initiate a process of cost and impact assessment of these possible policies. The objective of this research was to make a cost estimate of an initial system for the care of dependents in Chile.
