Abstract (English): In Peru the right to health protection is constitutionally recognized. The right to access health services is legally mandated, as well as access to health information and the protection of rights such as informed consent. However, with the implementation of actions related to these rights and protections, there may be disagreements which need to be resolved. In this context, alternative mechanisms for conflict resolution (AMCR), such as mediation, reconciliation and arbitration, are valid and accessible strategies within the Peruvian Health System. Currently, the National Center for Reconciliation and Arbitration (CECONAR) of the National Health Authority (SUSALUD) has the responsibility to lead the implementation of AMCR at the national level. In this article we provide a general overview of CECONAR, starting with its historical and legal foundations, and continuing to its present activities and finally we discuss and outline some future prospects.

Abstract (Spanish): En Perú se reconoce constitucionalmente el derecho a la protección de la salud; asimismo, la ley establece que la población tiene derecho al acceso a servicios de salud, a la información, a la atención y recuperación de su salud, al consentimiento informado y a la protección de sus derechos en salud. No obstante, con la ejecución de acciones relacionadas a ello, pueden presentarse inconformidades que requieren ser solucionadas. En ese marco, los mecanismos alternativos de solución de controversias (MASC) -como la mediación, la conciliación y el arbitraje- son vías válidas y accesibles en el Sistema de Salud Peruano. Actualmente, el Centro de Conciliación y Arbitraje de la Superintendencia Nacional de Salud (CECONAR) lidera la puesta en marcha de los MASC a nivel nacional. En este artículo se ofrece una visión general de CECONAR con un recorrido por sus bases históricas y legales, para luego mostrar su accionar presente y, finalmente, discutir y delinear algunas perspectivas a futuro.
