Abstract
Although in Brazil private insurance has been growing fast, the increase in the number of participants with full benefits has still to be proved. The growth of the number of participants, money invested and health schemes supply are linked to a process of decreasing guarantee by institutions. On the other hand, these private institutions are advertising electronic simulation tools with regard to the yield of the health schemes offered. Although they warn that these simulations do not guarantee the specified yield by the institution, it may be said that they predominate or should predominate the accounting aspects that involve the planning of a retirement scheme, problematizing their technical sufficiency within the context of the consumer´s vulnerability. The Consumer Defense Code analyzes the characterization of simulators as advertisements to verify the existence of any bonding of the institution by integrating simulation to the contract of private insurance.
