Summary: This study aims to investigate the level of compliance of health care providers and how the
characteristics (internal and external) of the providers affect the probability of noncompliance
with the limits imposed by the National Agency for Supplementary Health (ANS). The theory
of public finances and the theory of the economy regulation were used as theoretical basis, and the economic-financial data were extracted from the ANSs web pages and refer to the
period from 2007 to 2017. Based on the descriptive statistics, the findings showed that there
are more solvent companies than insolvent but with a significant increase in the number of
insolvent companies. The logistic regression models showed that variables such as age and
size are negatively related to the increase in the insolvency probability of the operators. On
the other hand, factors such as modality and geographic coverage give rise to greater chances
of insolvency. Moreover, in low-concentration sectors, medium- and small-sized carriers are
more prone to insolvency.
