In Colombia, there are four types of affiliation to Social Security Healthcare System SSHS). The contribution-based scheme is for persons with a work contract, retirees and independent workers who can pay their contributions; the subsidized scheme is for persons who cannot afford payment and are granted a subsidy amount. Excepted/special programmes provide coverage to certain groups (e.g., military, teachers) outside of SSHS.
