Royal Decree 1030/2006 of 15 September establishing the portfolio of common services of the National Health System and the procedure for updating it, regulates in its annexes the contents of each of the portfolios of public health services, primary care, specialized care, emergency care, pharmaceutical, orthoprosthetic, dietetic products, and sanitary transport, in accordance with the provisions of Law 16/2003 of 28 May, of the cohesion and quality of the National Health System.

Article 6 of the royal decree states that, by order of the current Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality, prior to the agreement of the Interterritorial Council of the National Health System, the content of the different sections of the common service portfolio listed in its Annexes.

Article 7 of the royal decree states that the portfolio of common services of the National Health System, contained in its annexes, will be updated by order of the current Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality, Prior agreement of the Interterritorial Council of the National Health System and Article 8 indicates that the proposals for the update of the portfolio will be raised to the Commission of benefits, assurance and financing, and that the definitive approval of These proposals shall correspond to the Ministry of Health, Social Services and Agreement of the Interterritorial Council of the National Health System.

As a result of these forecasts, Order SCO3422/2007, of 21 November, for which the procedure for updating the portfolio of common services of the National Health System is developed, has been applied for update that portfolio on different occasions through the corresponding ministerial orders.

Royal Decree-Law 16/2012 of 20 April, of urgent measures to ensure the sustainability of the National Health System and improve the quality and safety of its benefits, marked a substantial change in the common portfolio of National Health System services by modifying Article 8 of Law 16/2003 of 28 May, differentiating a basic common portfolio of care services, a supplementary common portfolio and a common portfolio of ancillary services.

The Interterritorial Council of the National Health System created on February 29, 2012 a working group on the development of the basic portfolio of services of the National Health System, with the objective of reviewing the common portfolio of services to identify and prioritise benefits, the content of which should be detailed, clarified or specified. This Working Group identified a number of areas that I consider it necessary to study for this purpose and, among others, prioritized activities to detect diseases in the presymptomatic phase by screening, genetics and human reproduction. assisted.

The prioritized areas are included within the basic common portfolio of health care services of the National Health System. For their approach, expert groups were set up to detail and update the corresponding section of the service portfolio referred to in Royal Decree 1030/2006 of 15 September. These groups have participated in professionals appointed by the Autonomous Communities and the Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality, the scientific societies involved in each area and the Spanish Network of Evaluation Agencies. Health Technologies and National Health System Benefits that provide information based on the scientific evidence available on those cases where there are doubts about effectiveness or safety.

As a result of the work of these expert groups, the proposals for the completion of the common services portfolio have been elaborated, detailing the corresponding section of the portfolio, so that the conditions of use or criteria for the proper use of the services included, identify those that are obsolete and, where appropriate, are detected for inclusion those others that are not currently included, have demonstrated safety, efficiency and efficiency. The Group's final proposals have been drawn up taking into account the content of the assessment reports provided by the Spanish Network of Agencies.

These proposals were raised by the Commission on Benefits, Assurance and Financing to the National Health System's Interterritorial Council at its meetings on 20 December 2012 and 23 July 2013.

This order is intended to make the implementation and updating of the Annexes to Royal Decree 1030/2006 of 15 September, in the sections corresponding to activities to detect the diseases in phase, effective. presymptomatic by screening, genetics, as well as assisted human reproduction, in order to achieve the reach of the different areas, homogenizing and updating their indications in the light of the scientific evidence available and contributing to maintain cohesion in the National Health System.

In this way, the basic common portfolio of services of the National Health System will guarantee more effective and safe benefits and greater equity in access for all citizens, avoiding differences between the benefits to be received by users in each of the autonomous communities, thus achieving greater homogeneity and rationalisation of health expenditure.

The detection of pre-presytomatic diseases by screening is part of the disease prevention activities listed in Annex I to Royal Decree 1030/2006 of 15 September on a portfolio of common public health services and in several paragraphs of Annex II and III corresponding to the portfolio of common primary and specialised services, respectively. For this area, it was decided to start the work in two groups one on neonatal screening and one on cancer screening. In both cases, the proposals drawn up by these groups include those who have sufficient scientific evidence of the health benefits and of the cost effectiveness studies that support their inclusion in the portfolio. services. In the case of neonatal cribates of endocrine-metabolic diseases, it is emphasized the importance of having an information system that allows at the autonomic and state level to carry out a correct monitoring and evaluation of these programs. population and a quality management system that allows the screening processes to be addressed in a homogeneous way in all autonomous communities. In the population of cancer, and without prejudice to the evaluations carried out by the autonomous communities, a state-level assessment of these benefits will be carried out in the National Health System as a whole. All this, within the framework of the provisions of article 20 of Law 33/2011, of 4 October, General of Public Health. Another fundamental aspect is that the implementation of activities to detect diseases in the presymptomatic phase by screening for their population character and their impact is carried out in a progressive, rational and efficient manner.

On the other hand, Annex III to Royal Decree 1030/2006 of 15 September concerning specialised care and within the laboratory section 5.2.9, contains as paragraph 5.2.9.3 that of genetics but without detailing the content of this portfolio or to establish any type of requirements or concreteness, except for the general criteria governing the entire portfolio of services. In addition, in paragraph 5.3.7 concerning family planning, the genetic advice is collected in risk groups. Genetic diseases and disorders are very numerous and low prevalence in the majority of cases, which together with the high number and the continuous evolution of genetic analysis, has made in this order been chosen by to define the fundamental aspects of the genetic portfolio by defining the genetic advice and the groups of pathologies for which the genetic advice is to be given, as well as the types of genetic analysis and the criteria for the indication of each one of them.

Finally, assisted human reproduction is provided for in paragraph 5.3.8 of Annex III to Royal Decree 1030/2006 of 15 September for cases where there is a diagnosis of sterility or an established clinical indication, according to the programs of each health service and specifically citing the techniques it includes. This order incorporates the proposal of the Group of Experts, clarifying the criteria for the indication of the techniques of assisted human reproduction in the framework of the National Health System, and updates the techniques according to the evidence available science.

This order has been consulted to the Autonomous Communities and the cities of Ceuta and Melilla, to the National Institute of Health Management (INGESA), having been informed by the Public Health Commission regarding the cribados (a) the National Health System and the Interterritorial Council of the National System of Health and the Interterritorial Council of the National System of Health and the Interterritorial Council of the National System of Health. Health. It has also been submitted to the Spanish Data Protection Agency, the National Disability Council and the various sectors affected.
