Annual ceiling set in ordinance
The Ministry of Health published the definition of the annual limit of R$ 25,304,807.91 for Athena Healthcare Holding S A to issue the Certificate of Value of Financial Credits. The measure applies to the company's activities within the Agora Tem Especialistas program.
The amount appears in an ordinance signed by Minister Alexandre Padilha, responsible for approving the decision.
What the limit represents
The company is among those authorized to participate in the initiative, which seeks to expand the population's access to specialized care. With the publication of the ceiling, the maximum amount that can be converted into credit certificates over each year is established.
- Authorized amount: R$ 25,304,807.91 per fiscal year
- Company covered: Athena Healthcare Holding S A
- Instrument: Certificate of Value of Financial Credits
- Program: Agora Tem Especialistas
- Signature: Minister Alexandre Padilha
Why the definition matters
Setting a ceiling works as a mechanism for budget control and transparency. By delimiting how much can be issued in certificates, the ministry organizes the flow of funds allocated to the program and prevents execution from exceeding the planned amount.
For the holding, the established limit is the official reference for its issuance capacity in the period. For federal management, meanwhile, the provision serves as a tool for monitoring and overseeing the partnership.
Program context
Agora Tem Especialistas is part of the ministry's strategy to reduce queues and shorten waiting times for specialty consultations and procedures. The participation of authorized companies, such as Athena Healthcare Holding S A, is part of the operational design that supports the execution of the planned actions.
The ordinance takes effect with the effects of its publication, and monitoring of the amounts issued must observe the limit set herein.
