Línea Jurisprudencial de la Corte Constitucional del Derecho Fundamental a la Salud de Migrantes en Colombia

Abstract

The provisions of the Constitutional Court, like all current regulations, should not be analyzed in isolation, but in a contextualized manner, especially in relation to the Political Constitution of 1991, so that it is possible to visualize the parameters that gave rise to them and the sub rules that govern them, to be able to appreciate them as a harmonic whole. However, due to the problems presented by the Colombian health system aggravated by the humanitarian crisis unleashed by the massive immigration of Venezuelan citizens to the country, it is necessary to analyze the Jurisprudential Line of the Constitutional Court of the Fundamental Right to Migrant Health of Border Countries in Colombia, in order to determine whether the State guarantees fundamental rights to immigrants through comprehensive emergency care, on equal terms with nationals and residents. This study was carried out through the Dynamic Jurisprudence Analysis method. Obtaining as a result the determination of the main parameters to consider violated the fundamental rights to life and a dignified life and the most important sub-rules governing emergency care in the national territory.
