Healthcare System Overview

Peru's health system consists of five subsystems: SIS (Seguro Integral de Salud, for the poor), EsSalud (social security for formal workers), military/police schemes, and private EPS (Entidades Prestadoras de Salud). EPS are private companies that allow EsSalud affiliates to opt up โ€” paying an additional premium to access private clinics. Only about 8% of the population uses EPS. The private market is dominated by Grupo Breca (Rimac) and Grupo Credicorp (Pacifico), which together hold 77% of EPS affiliates.
