There is a news report which appeared on August 30, 2009 mentioning the Colombian President was affected by the swine flu (or AH1N1 flu). In the link on the fifth video link the current Ministro de Protección Social (Social Protection Minister) Diego Palacio is reporting the medical treatment to be followed, to a reporter from RCN channel. On the back, to the right, one can see the flag of the INS (Instituto Nacional de Salud, in English National Health Institute). It is a white background plus the symbol in the middle.
The symbol's explanation is here and its designer is Dicken Castro, a very renowned Designer, who also designed the logo for the Ministerio de Desarrollo Económico (Ministry of Economic Development)  in 1968, now a defunct Ministry which was absorbed by the Ministry of the Environment and Housing to form the Ministry of the Environment, Housing and Regional Development in the 2000's.
The INS has traces back its roots to 1917 with the establishment of the Laboratorio Samper Martínez (Samper Martínez Lab). Then it merged with other labs to become the INS in 1975.

Seguro Social (Social Inssurance)


image by Jorge Candeias, 17 April 2004

In a commercial (?) site there is a flag that seems to be the national security flag. Is it a governmental flag or a commercial one?
See clinica_iss_sogamoso.tripod.com.co.
Dov Gutterman, 19 November 2003

Seguro (Social inssurance) refers surely to a social services from the state, like health and pensions. Seems that this hospital is collaborating with the department of Social inssurance of Colombia
Jaume Ollé, 19 November 2003

The Instituto del Seguro Social is a governmental organization for health care and pension.  There are also some private organizations but this one is public.  I don't recall having seen an actual flag, but I cannot deny it either.
Carlos Thompson, 20 November 2003

The flag is a white-green bicolour with an "S" logo in the upper field and the name in the top of the lower field.
Jorge Candeias, 17 April 2004

The ISS (Instituto de Seguros Sociales was its official name, but people used to call it "Seguro Social"). The ISS encompassed both health and pension services, thus being called "Seguros Sociales" (Social Securities) since it included Health and Pension Policies (Seguros, in spanish) and later ir evolved to include Labor Policies as well. It used to have this official website: http://www.iss.gov.co/ (dead link, accessible through here). It was established on December 26, 1946

During 2007 and 2008 the units administered by the ISS that provided Health and Labor care were privatized and in 2012 the units administered by the ISS that provided Pension services were transfered to a new government entity called Administradora Colombiana de Pensiones - Colpensiones (Colombian Administration of Pensions - Colpensiones) ( official website). The ISS then was declared bankrupt and through a series of reforms is being liquidated as its current official website states:
