ANSES

On 10 December 2015 Basavilbaso took office as Executive Director of the Administración Nacional de la Seguridad Social (National Social Security Administration).[1][2] In 2016 the Ley 27.260 – Reparación Histórica para Jubilados y Pensionados (Historical Reparation Law for Retirees and Pensioners) was enacted, updating benefits for retirees and pensioners with legal claims against the State for lack of benefit indexation.[18] That year, Decree DNU 593/2016 modified the Régimen de Asignaciones Familiares (Family Allowances Regime), incorporating monotributistas (small taxpayers) and expanding compatibility rules with certain social programs.[19][20][21]

ANSES and the Ministerio de Desarrollo Social (Ministry of Social Development) implemented the Protección de Niños y Jóvenes (Child and Youth Protection) project with financing from the World Bank, within a larger lending program approved in 2016.[22]

Under his administration, Créditos Argenta (Argenta loans) were expanded to beneficiaries of the Pensión Universal para el Adulto Mayor (Universal Pension for the Elderly), to non-contributory pension holders, and to parents receiving the Asignación Universal por Hijo (Universal Child Allowance, AUH) and the Asignación Familiar (Family Allowance).[23][24] Between December 2015 and May 2017, overall coverage of family and universal allowances rose by approximately 25%, and by 2018 the system covered about 9.1 million children through Asignaciones Familiares and the AUH.[25][26][27]

In 2017, ANSES and partner institutions published Análisis y propuestas de mejoras para ampliar la Asignación Universal por Hijo (Analysis and Proposals to Expand the AUH), a joint research effort by ANSES, the Ministerio de Desarrollo Social (Ministry of Social Development), UNICEF, the Facultad de Ciencias Económicas de la Universidad de Buenos Aires (Faculty of Economic Sciences, University of Buenos Aires), CEDLAS of the Universidad Nacional de La Plata (National University of La Plata) and the CNCPS.[28] In 2018 the Libreta de la Asignación Universal (AUH booklet) could be submitted online through a new virtual process.[29] That year, with UNICEF Argentina and other agencies, ANSES co-organized the international seminar Asignación Universal por Hijo, presente y futuro del derecho en la niñez (Universal Child Allowance: Present and Future of Children's Rights).[30]

In 2018 he chaired the Permanent Committee of the Conferencia Interamericana de Seguridad Social (Inter-American Conference on Social Security, CISS), based in Mexico,[31][32] and between 2018 and 2019 he served as president of the Organización Iberoamericana de Seguridad Social (Ibero-American Social Security Organization, OISS), headquartered in Madrid.[33][34]
