Karen Slama

the issues involved in a) raising taxes on specific products to influence health and b) the dedication of a proportion of those taxes to specific purposes, in this case, earmarking taxes for the creation and maintenance of a health promotion foundation. This background paper will examine some of the common considerations of fiscal policy in relation to alcoholic beverages and tobacco products, look at the impact of raising prices on changes in consumption and the corresponding health and social consequences, examine more specifically the pros and cons of earmarking a portion of alcohol and tobacco taxes for health promotion, and look at some aspects of successful creation of health promotion foundations based on earmarked taxes.

Información preparatoria para la adopción de una política que fomente la preasignación de los ingresos derivados de los impuestos sobre el tabaco y el alcohol a la creación de fundaciones de promoción de la salud

Karen Slama

las cuestiones que conlleva el hecho de a) aumentar los impuestos sobre unos productos concretos para incidir sobre la salud y b) dedicar una parte de dichos impuestos a fines específicos, en el caso que nos ocupa, destinar el producto de los impuestos a la creación y mantenimiento de una fundación de promoción de la salud. Este trabajo preparatorio estudiará algunas de las consideraciones habituales de la política fiscal relativa a bebidas alcohólicas y productos derivados del tabaco, determinará el impacto que tiene el aumento de precios sobre el consumo y las correspondientes consecuencias sociales y sobre la salud, estudiará más concretamente los pros y contras de preasignar una parte de los ingresos derivados de los impuestos sobre el tabaco y el alcohol a la promoción de la salud, y presentará algunos aspectos de experiencias positivas de creación de fundaciones de promoción de la salud basadas en esta preasignación fiscal.
