The article described elements related with de determinants of health care expenditure in Colombia, in which the Per Capita Unit estimated per year and the insurance charges to FOSYGA represent the main points related with the determinants of health care expenditure, but the question is why and how they impact on the total expenditure?. The sustainability and the finance protection is a priority. For these reason the analysis of the factors and determinants of health care expenditure is a need for the countries. This paper is a reflection and a general approach for understanding better the factors driving the health care spending in Colombia.
