In terms of figures, under the definition of deprivation of ECLAC (2013), there is practically no deprivation in Chile (what is more, the proportion of uninsured people is spread more or less evenly across the different socioeconomic groups). When a cut-off based on contribution-based insurance is used, the levels of deprivation are similar in the two countries. However, owing to the opacity of health insurance markets, this is not necessarily the case.
