This article highlights the determinations inherent to the corrosive movement of capital in the current context of crisis for the Brazilian Health Sector Reform Project. It is a bibliographical research that verifies the subsumption of the Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS - National Health System) to macro determinations of finance capital. Shows the management model and privatizing healthcare, individual curative and centered procedure that has hegemonized the implementation of health policy in the context of SUS. As an expression of capital's attacks it emphasizes the obstacles to ensuring universal right to health when privatize it. It problematizes up, so the various forms of health privatization: the proposed universal health coverage-UHC, the so-called "new" management models, DAC 451 and the law n o 13.097 / 2015. And, notes the incestuous relationship between state intervention and the need for expansion of capital via appropriation of public funds.
