Sistemas de custeio na gestão hospitalar

The cost management in any organization provides a number of benefits such as security in the good management of resources, but it is little used in the public hospital sector which is shaped like a paradox, facing the complexity of hospital organization and the underfunding situation of Cheers. The purpose of this book was to develop and submit an application method of a costing system in public hospitals. This proposal was developed in partnership with the Secretariat of the State of Paraná Health, with financial support from PPSUS and Araucaria Foundation. The study was conducted as an action research in two public hospitals in Paraná, but it can be replicated in any hospital from the premises of the developed method. For this, We developed the concepts of administration and public governance, the right to health in Brazil, the costs in the public sector and the detailed presentation of the proposed costing system model. The results constitute an important management tool for hospitals and Ministry of Health, enabling greater security leaders in the face of difficulties and challenges in this segment. Thus, it is expected that the book will contribute to governments for better management of public funds allocated to health; with academia, as a still incipient theme in literature; and society, so that more hospitals were professionalize its cost management and thereby provide a more efficient and effective service.

Transparência das informações públicas nos portais das instituições federais de educação profissional da região sul do Brasil

Considering the need of communication between public management and society and its citizens, in a way which is more effective and transparent, the aim of this research was to analyze the transparency of public information presented by the managers of the portals of southern Brazil’s Federal Institutes. It is a qualitative and quantitative research, applied as its purpose, and exploratory as its aim. In order to explain the issue from the theoretical frameworks published, it will be used as a procedure the bibliographic research and the further study field research in the six southern Brazil’s Federal Institutes. Therefore, the theoretical framework approaches aspects about public transparency, concepts of information and communication in the public sector, and it presents measurement indexes of public transparency. The data collection with the Institutes sought to measure – in the portals – the level of transparency of the information presented by the managers, applying a search tool which provided the transparency index of eleven categories of the researched items, besides verifying the presence of the required items by Access to Information Law. In the sequence, it sought to verify the Institutes managers’ perception of the aspects which composes the proposed theme, for the purpose of observing how the process of communication between public agencies and the citizen is happening. The main results obtained emphasize, in a general way, a low level of public information propagation, with a lower average of propagation to the information about social, environmental and economic responsibility, and a greater average to the information related to the institution’s general data – from its management structure to its ordinance. It was also observed that no institution which was researched fully comply with the demands of the Access of Information Law. The results about the manager perceptio demonstrate a tendency in publishing the produced information, however, elements such disorganization of information in the portals, lack of standardization of the virtual structure and type of language to use, and lack of procedures of popular participation and interaction in the portals are determiners to bring problems in the access and in the communication with the public. Besides, the short time of institutions’ creation and the short time of the managers assuming their functions must be considered as a reflex of the found results. Therewith, the present study highlighted the importance of Public Transparency theme and it reached a positive result to a scientific and social contribution.
