Right to health: (in) congruence between the legal framework and the health system

Objective to discuss the right to health, incorporation into the legal instruments and the deployment in practice in the National Health System in Mozambique. Method this is a documentary analysis of a qualitative nature, which after thorough and interpretative reading of the legal instruments and articles that deal with the right to health, access and universal coverage, resulted in the construction of three empirical categories: instruments of humans rights and their interrelationship with the development of the right to health; the national health system in Mozambique; gaps between theory and practice in the consolidation of the right to health in the country. Results Mozambique ratified several international and regional legal instruments (of Africa) that deal with the right to health and which are ensured in its Constitution. However, their incorporation into the National Health Service have been limited because it can not provide access and universal coverage to health services in an equitable manner throughout its territorial extension and in the different levels of care. Conclusions the implementation of the right to health is complex and will require mobilization of the state and political financial, educational, technological, housing, sanitation and management actions, as well as ensuring access to health, and universal coverage.


Introduction
The right to health is part of the context of social rights, one of the most difficult rights to protect, especially when civil and political rights are considered (1) , as it implies effective and proactive actions of the states, in order to attain it, by proposition and assurance of policies and programs in the health field. Nevertheless, good health is desired by every human being as a condition for exercising the rule of law. Talking about the right to health implies reference to a set of legal norms that establish the rights and obligations of the state, collectively and also individually, regulating and monitoring the relationships between them (1) . It also refers to access and universal coverage of health services, in quality and quantity for the whole population.
Universal health service coverage should offer high quality services and access, also prioritizing promotion, prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and palliative care (2)(3)(4) . In this context, the health systems and their governments, to guarantee this coverage, should act on the social and environmental determinants of health (3)(4)(5) , pointing out that the performance of these factors should be a task of all state sectors.
In many countries, especially developing countries such as Mozambique, there are several obstacles to accessing healthcare services, which are an obstacle to universal coverage. Among these are: lack of sanitary infrastructure, insufficient human resources, lack of equipment, higher demand, difficulty of paying users for the services performed, professional attitudes and characteristics of health services (5) . All of these barriers contribute to the deprivation of the right to health of populations.
The independence of Mozambique from Portuguese domination in 1975 did not necessarily mean the full exercise of the right to health for most of the population.
Rather, the great challenge is exactly to improve the high rate of chronic malnutrition, especially in children, high food insecurity, low levels of education of women, poor access to safe drinking water, inadequate levels of availability to basic sanitation and access to high quality health services, and the equitable distribution of health care professionals in urban, peripheral and rural areas where health needs are higher (3) .
These are some of the challenges that reveal the difficulties of the State in operationalizing coverage targets and universal access to health, caused also by the lack of funds for the health system, deficient information systems, negative relationships between health professionals and the people, and late referral for more specialized care of patients with certain conditions from the clinics of lower levels of care (3)(4)(5) . Access to health services becomes effective when accompanied by universal coverage, understood as the development of health financing systems by the State that allow people to use services and health actions without financial burden, such as direct disbursement to obtaining needed health care (3,6) . This requires that services are provided equitably, regardless of geographic location, cultural values, beliefs, religion and ethnicity. Lack of access and universal coverage constitutes a barrier for realization of the right to health in Mozambique.
Aiming at deepening this subject, a literature review was performed in the databases of the Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences -(LILACS), PubMed and Scopus, however, no article on Mozambique was found. For academic contribution to this discussion, legislation about the right to health was used, elaborating some questions that will guide this reflective study: what international and regional instruments ratified the right to health in Mozambique?
What are the legal instruments in Mozambique that include the right to health? With what theoretical, legal and social frameworks can the gap between theory and practice on the right to health in Mozambique be understood? To answer these questions, the article presents as its objective the discussion on the right to health, incorporation into legal instruments and the deployment in practice in the National Health System in Mozambique.

Method
This was a documentary analysis of a qualitative approach, which followed the guidelines of Souza, Kamorski and Luis (7) and Viswambharan and Priya (8) , taking documentary analysis as an analytical process, from documentary sources, which enables the identification, verification and examination of documents, expanding and questioning the background.
The use of document analysis extends the knowledge, whose understanding requires a contextual historical approach, allowing the comprehension of the processes of evolution of practices, behaviors, trends and application of certain measures (6) . and "gaps between theory and practice in the consolidation of the right to health in the country."

Results
Five national legislative documents were analyzed: the Constitution of the Republic of Mozambique, 2004; a decree-law; and three laws. Figure 1 shows these legal documents.  Then, the three empirical categories were analyzed, mobilizing the bibliography that shows the situation of the existence of the right to health or lack thereof, coverage and access to health services.

Instruments of humans rights and their interrelationship with the development of the right to health in Mozambique
When the nation, a member of the World Health Organization and the African Union, approved instruments affirming the right to health, Mozambique was still a Portuguese colony, without the legal structure to include this prerogative into the rule of law. But, with its independence in 1975, Mozambique acceded to several international and regional human rights instruments that directly or indirectly addressed the guarantee of the right to health. For a better illustration, Figure 2 shows some human rights instruments, with some content related to health and the position of Mozambique.

Human rights treaties
Year of Adoption African committee of experts on the rights and welfare of the child 1998 Art. 14 Source: Adapted from Mozambique -WHO -General Fact Sheet on the right to health, available from: http://www.ohchr.org (9) .  that "everyone has the right to enjoy the best health that he is able to achieve" and reinforces also that "the member states of this charter are committed to taking the necessary measures to protect the health of their populations and to assure medical care in case of illness" (11) . The Charter implies the mission of any member state to the commitment to ensure the health of its population, while it does not assure the guarantee as a responsibility or duty of the state, however, it reinforces individual freedom to enjoy the best health that one is capable of obtaining.
Mozambique still faces major challenges to the equitable offering of the status of right to health, not only in improving health services, but in ensuring effective and broad actions, which act positively on the social determinants that affect the right to health. In this sense, the actions for the fight against food insecurity, public safety, supply and access to clean water, sanitary measures in private and public environments, access to basic and higher education, environmental sanitation, poverty reduction policies, and the consumption of alcohol, drugs and tobacco, which are social determinants that limit access and universal coverage for health services (3,5) . In 1977 this situation changed as a result of Law N. 2/77 (13) , which emphasizes in Article 1 the gratuity of prophylactic health actions. In this regard, the Ministry of Health (MoH) adopted a payment criterion with a fixed value for medical and pharmaceutical appointments in the 11 provinces of the country, considered affordable prices for everyone.

The National Health System in Mozambique
The adoption of participation through payments used to limit access of the population to health services, as the country at that time had a high unemployment rate (30%) and a high illiteracy rate (68%) (4)  Another factor that must be considered is that the MoH depends on donations of international organizations and partner countries, especially Western, to perform its actions. These resources do not always meet the needs for coverage and access to health services for the population, not only because they are scarce, but also because they are not geographically allocated equitably, giving privileges to high-complexity hospitals, directly interfering with the population's right to health (2)(3)(4)(5)(6) .
The fact that traditional medicine has been recognized as an NHS participant undoubtedly adds value to the right to health and respect for local culture, to the extent that people can consult traditional physicians freely. However, there is still no effective integration of these health practices within the NHS, thereby not ensuring the regulation of the MoH on the supply of these services and systematized protocols with referral and counter-referral that enable the coordination of care in a more articulate manner, making the guarantee to the right to health even more difficult. It is important to note that traditional medicine covers 100% of all of the Mozambican population, namely, even people who have access to the NHS also access the traditional medicine system.

Gaps between theory and practice in the consolidation of the right to health in the country
Although the right to health depends on specific legislation to ensure rights and duties, it requires mutual efforts to function. In this context, the importance of availability is emphasized, which involves the construction of infrastructure and the existence of health care services in a sufficient amount for the whole population; accessibility, which involves health care services that are available to the entire population without discrimination; physical accessibility, in which health facilities are available to all, including the reduction of distances and means of transportation available to meet the needs of users, greater attention to the most vulnerable people in the communities; and accessibility, which implies the recognition of the difficulties of access to work, and greater equity in payments, which should be as accessible as possible for all when they exist; the population's access to information without discrimination and the duty of health professionals to respect medical ethics and recognize the cultural issues in the contexts in which they work can be an obstacle in care (3)(4)(5)(6) .
Finally, in order to ensure this right, there must be quality services, equipment and human resources (3) .
In Mozambique, where most of the population is unemployed, and although the payment amounts are lines or principles for the fulfillment of State programs are conceived (1) . In this context, the States make an effort to implement the right to health, according to Most importantly, in this process of right to health, is the recognition that the State has an immediate duty to fulfill essential obligations, having as responsibilities to regulate, design and implement policies and mobilize financial resources.
For the right to health to be effectively implemented for the population, empowerment would be required, including universal access to education, health, employment, promotion of equality of gender within ethnic groups, and the institutional ability to respond (1)(2)6,11) . A community-based intervention would also be important to guarantee access to a wide variety of promotional, preventive, curative and rehabilitative health services (3)(4) .
But what happens in Mozambique? In order to have the right to health, financial resources for the various levels of the NHS and other health subsystems are essential. among other factors; political decentralization in the implementation and coordination, so that decisions are made at other levels (central, provincial and district); and medical technology, which involves a set of tools and processes that effectively respond to health care needs (17) . representing much less compared to the regional average (4) . Although the gross domestic product (GDP) has been growing in recent years, around 7% per year, the budget allocated to the NHS state is 6.6%, below the recommended 15%in the Africa region (4) .
This decentralization and transparency are not well defined by the MoH, since there is no visibility on accountability for the population as a whole, although there is a set of policies, strategies, laws and regulations (3,8,12) . The country lacks quantity and quality medical technology, materials and processes (3)(4)15) ; therefore it does not have sufficient infrastructure to fully meet the access to diagnostic tools that are able to respond safely to the laboratory diagnosis of different diseases that affect the population. Although the coverage of health services has improved, it is still low to meet all the health needs of the population (4,13,17) .
One cannot deny the improvements in some health areas, such as the increase of births attended by health professionals, set at 54.3%; reducing poverty by almost 50%; and reducing neonatal mortality from 50% to 30.4% (8,4,13) ; but the state of the right to health is still far from being effected within the whole population.
Other factors associated with lack of coverage of health services in countries such as Mozambique are related to social inequalities, government political systems (3)(4)(5)(6) and, in the case of the African countries, political and economic instability is added. For countries with these characteristics, the universal service coverage requires reforming systems, promoting the principles of equity, solidarity and collective action to overcome inequalities (3)(4)(5) , since the absence of all this cannot guarantee universal access and coverage and consequently, the right to health.

Conclusion
The theme of the right to health is complex, as permeated by various spheres, including health, law, financial policies, education, technology, housing, sanitation and management.
In Mozambique, the State's actions, represented by the NHS, show the gap between the recommended policies and health practices, with an incipient focus on equity and quality, although there is an increased demand for health services systematically.
The difficulties of access and universal coverage, and hence the establishment of the right to health, is a reflection of: underfunding in health; difficulties decentralizing care processes and medical technologies; minimal coverage of NHS; lack of qualified professionals and a pricing policy to maintain these professionals; difficulty with work conditions and processes in health care; few activities in the interdisciplinary and teamwork fields; and systematic practice of professionals, such as nurses.
For the people to have the right to health, in addition to the actions implemented by the government, there is also the need for participation www.eerp.usp.br/rlae
