Parcerias com o setor privado em serviços de saúde e inovações na gestão da atenção básica: o caso da rede municipal de Suzano, SP

O objetivo dessa pesquisa é fazer uma avaliação dos resultados obtidos por novas políticas de saúde implementadas em escala municipal. Essa avaliação foi feita pela caracterização do processo de cessão parcial da rede de Atenção Básica de um município de médio porte - Suzano, SP - para gestão pelo setor privado por meio de convênio. A parceria com o setor privado na prestação de serviços de saúde é uma das mais importantes políticas introduzidas no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) desde sua criação; contudo, existem poucos estudos que avaliem o seu impacto na saúde da população ou no acesso aos serviços de saúde, e isso se deve à falta de compreensão sobre os variados tipos de interação entre o sistema de saúde e os atores sociais e instituições que estão envolvidos em sua implementação e gestão. O estudo foi realizado com pesquisa bibliográfica sobre a contratualização, convênios e parcerias na saúde brasileira, seguida de trabalho de campo no município de Suzano. Lá foram ouvidos gestores públicos na Secretaria Municipal de Saúde (SMS) e, depois, foram realizadas 19 entrevistas semi-estruturadas com gerentes, médicos e enfermeiros de 12 equipamentos de saúde da rede de Atenção Básica municipal. Depois foram realizadas outras 4 entrevistas com gestores da SMS. O conjunto de unidades investigado reflete a diversidade de bairros, populações e necessidades de saúde de um município de porte médio, com uma rede de saúde bastante sofisticada e avaliada positivamente dentro dos parâmetros nacionais. Verificou-se que, apesar das dificuldades e dos objetivos que ainda não foram alcançados, existe um padrão recorrente na gestão do SUS que é bastante positivo: as reformas federais que foram implementadas paulatinamente desde 1990 têm baseado-se em avaliações corretas sobre os problemas do SUS e, ainda que lentamente, têm conseguido produzir transformações positivas no mesmo.

Evaluation of the capability of decentralized management of epidemiological surveillance in the state of Bahia

Evaluative research into the capability of decentralized management of epidemiological vigilance (EV) was conducted in the operational, organizational and sustainable dimensions in the state of Bahia, Brazil. The quantitative approach was used in the construction of a baseline, with primary data obtained through an online questionnaire answered by thirty-eight municipal EV managers. In the qualitative approach to analyze the context and assess the management capability of municipalities in two case studies, techniques adapted to the analysis of discursive practices were used. This was done through semi-structured interviews with managers of regional and municipal government, health workers and representatives of the municipal health council. The case studies showed that the municipality with enhanced management capability is that in which the manager has the greatest potential of using the resources of his position, in addition to his ability to control, negotiate and coordinate with other actors. Due to decentralization of EV, considering the shared nature of management between the three spheres of government, there is a marked variation in the management capability of municipalities, determined by social, economic, political inequalities and management mechanisms adopted.

Municipal Self-Government in the Ukrainian Lands: 14th-16th Centuries

This project considered the development of municipal self-government (particularly the Magdeburg-law type) in Ukraine through the late Middle Ages in the context of central and eastern European history, using a comparative analysis of different forms of self-government. The Magdeburg Law was brought to the lands of old Rus by German colonists in the period of the Galician-Volhynian State (in the late 13th-early 14th centuries). Municipal self-government based on this law in Ukraine was now however an external artificial phenomenon, but rather an intrinsic need that emerged during the historical development of the society. The Magdeburg Law reached Ukraine through Poland and acquired certain features which were different from the form used in German towns, and Ukrainian towns further adapted the Magdeburg model to their own circumstances. It was "purest" in the western part of the region, while further to the east Magdeburg-Law-type municipal government appeared later, was further removed from its original form, and had a weaker influence on the historical development of the towns. The Magdeburg Law came to be a legalisation of a historically determined process of the emergence of an urban estate.
