This paper presents a literature review about medicalization, from biopolitics, in neoliberalism. The construction of the healthcare market puts into play a set of government technology of pipelines, which forge healthy subjectivities and controlled by health and safety requirements. The effects of these medicalized practices cross and manufacture bodies and populations, exploited by the risk management and risk, the prevention and control of the future, in the name of life and health, extended to the extreme. In this respect, the object of this article is to discuss through a historical approach, based on Foucault the emergence of biocapital and the bioeconomy as standardization tactics and regulation of pipelines by biocitizenship as strategy, under the law to claim the right to health.

Palabras clave : Medicalization; biocapital; bioeconomy; biocitizenship; health.
