The principles of the Unified Health System (Sistema Único de Saúde - SUS) - universal attendance, integrated and decentralized administration and the users' participation - were included in the Federal Constitution of 1988 as a result of a political movement around the subject of the health which has begun in the second half of the decade of 70, together with the overcoming process of the authoritarian regimen established in 1964. This movement, which got the name of sanitary movement or movement for the Sanitary Reform, can be understood in its relationship with a process of cultural changing among the Brazilian left, that looked for new forms of facing the democracy and, with it, the social policy. This work part of the premise that one of the main influences to guide this new vision was the Italian Marxist Antonio Gramsci's thought. We've tried to identify, in the formation of the speech on the Sanitary Reform and in the definition of the political strategies of those that make efforts for it, the influences of Gramsci. To reach this objective, we analyzed the editorials of Saúde em Debate (Health in Debate) magazine, official vehicle of the Centro Brasileiro de Estudos de Saúde (Brazilian Health Studies Center - Cebes), which is still in activity, that represented, in the analyzed period, 1976 to 1988, the critical thought about the reality of the health in the country and finished to be the institution that supported the project of Sanitary Reform.

This research aimed at evaluating the efficiency of a specific model of operational auditing, created to audit municipal health systems, which are part of the Sistema Único de Saúde in the State of Rio de Janeiro, the AOSMS. Thus, it attempted to find out whether they represent a valid method of auditing the performance of SUS in the State of Rio de Janeiro based on the isolated or combined utilization of efficiency and efficacy criteria, and to finalize, how the AOSMS may contribute to the improvement of the municipal management of SUS. The study is based on two references axes, as follows: criteria and paradigms of operational auditing according to what International Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI) understands about this methodology and the evaluation method of health services proposed by Avedis Donabedian, based on the triad structure, process and result. The work consisted initially in verifying compatibility and evaluating potential of the parameters that constitute the AOSMS with the adopted references, in the light of the basic principles that inform the Brazilian Sistema Único de Saúde and afterwards in the submission of these parameters to the analytic categories created in this study with the intent of checking its adequacy and pertinacity to analyze public health systems. In order to reach its objective the research used the case study strategy of the TCE-RJ experience of holding operational audit in 39 municipal health systems in the State of Rio de Janeiro developed between 2000 and 2007. The result confirmed the hypothesis of the study and revealed how the AOSMS, considered as a valid methodology for its finality, may contribute for the improvement of the municipal management of SUS, reaffirming the potential of operational auditing to proceed with the evaluation of the performance of the Sistema Único de Saúde in the angle of external control, considering however that its application in Brazil, because of the external control model constitutionally adopted, must pass through due sociological reduction2.

A necessidade de coibir o descontrole do mercado dos planos de saúde tornou-se uma questão importante no cenário nacional, na década de 90. Desta forma, 10 anos após a criação do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), em um contexto de pressões e de baixa regulação dos planos de saúde, instituiu-se a Lei no 9.656/1998, uma legislação inédita no Brasil, pois regulou as atividades das operadoras de planos de saúde (OPSs) em nível nacional. Dentre outras questões, a Lei estabeleceu a política de ressarcimento ao SUS, impondo no Artigo no 32 o ressarcimento pelas OPSs das despesas geradas ao SUS quando um beneficiário usa a rede pública para um procedimento coberto pelo seu plano. No entanto, esta política é parte dos conflitos que se situa no limite dos interesses entre o setor privado e público: as OPSs já em 1998 moveram uma ação direta de inconstitucionalidade contra a mesma e têm recorrido frequentemente ao judiciário para não pagarem os valores cobrados pela Agência Nacional de Saúde Suplementar (ANS). Após 12 anos da Lei, ainda não se conhece o seu real impacto. Portanto, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a efetividade da política de ressarcimento ao SUS. A metodologia utilizada baseou-se na avaliação de dados produzidos pela ANS e pelo Ministério da Saúde/DATASUS, e das entrevistas realizadas com gerentes da rede pública e privada. Apesar das ações da ANS, os resultados apontaram a reduzida efetividade da política em termos financeiros, jurídicos e sobre o seu público-alvo. Apenas 22% do cobrado às OPSs foi restituído ao Sistema Único de 1999 a 2006, a política é vista como inconstitucional pelo mercado e tem reduzido impacto sobre as OPSs, o SUS e os beneficiários. Questões como os valores da tabela única nacional de equivalência de procedimentos (TUNEP), a inconstitucionalidade do ressarcimento e a opção do beneficiário pelo uso do SUS foram explicitadas pelos gestores de planos de saúde como fatores geradores de resistência das OPSs frente à política. Os dirigentes públicos afirmaram a importância da mesma para tutela de beneficiários e do SUS, como de ter viabilizado a construção do Cadastro de Beneficiários da ANS, porém, reconhecem os seus baixos resultados. Recomenda-se a manutenção do ressarcimento ao Sistema Único como um instrumento para coibir empresas que procuram contornar as exigências legais da Agência Reguladora, a qual atua promovendo a defesa do interesse público na assistência suplementar à saúde. No entanto, a mesma deve sofrer as devidas reformulações e devem ser estabelecidos consensos entre o SUS e o setor suplementar.

Este estudo reflete uma preocupação pessoal com a efetividade da jurisdição na questão do direito fundamental à saúde e os dilemas que se apresentam ao juiz, o- brigado a decidir sobre questões complexas e que transcendem à matéria jurídica. A Constituição Federal de 1988 estabeleceu, no artigo 6o, que a saúde é um direito social a ser disponibilizado pelo Estado. Já o artigo 196 diz que a saúde é direito de todos e dever do Estado, garantindo mediante políticas sociais e econômicas. O acesso às ações e serviços é universal e gratuito, constituindo o SUS em patrimônio social e o único respaldo da maioria da população em caso de doença. A realidade dos serviços oferecidos está distante das formulações constitucionais. Há aspectos, contudo, em que ele funciona e é elogiado, como a política pública de medicamentos para portadores de AIDS. As demandas judiciais são crescentes, em especial em busca de medicamentos, sempre dispendiosos e diferentes dos disponibilizados pelo serviço público. Esta atuação judicial tem se dado de forma pouco racional, não havendo uma fundamentação das decisões, causando fortes impactos nos orçamentos. O Judiciário passa a ser visto como um elemento perturbador, criando pontos de tensão com os gestores públicos. Para contribuir com algum elemento, sem ter a pretensão de esgotar a matéria, a- presento um resumo do percurso histórico-social da matéria na evolução da socie- dade brasileira. A construção das políticas públicas em saúde e seus formuladores. Os princípios em direito sanitário e as políticas em torno dos medicamentos. Reunidos estes elementos, verificam-se as decisões judiciais, procurando identificar os fundamentos e os critérios que orientaram os julgados e as tendências observa- das. Investiga-se sobre a Audiência Pública no 4, percebida como prática inovadora na administração da Justiça, que não se esgota em si, e prossegue gerando repercussões. Constata-se e conclui-se que o direito à saúde se afirma de forma preponderante por políticas públicas e o Poder Judiciário esforça-se por construir uma política institucional para melhor cumprir o seu papel.

A presente dissertação procura analisar as condições de implantação do Sistema Único de Saúde, identificando dilemas e desafios para a institucionalização do SUS. O estudo apresenta uma síntese histórica da Política Pública de Saúde no Brasil, ressaltando as dicotomias entre as ações de natureza preventiva, patrocinadas ao longo do tempo pelo Ministério da Saúde, e as de natureza assistencial, afetas ao Ministério da Previdência Social. Nesta perspectiva, o resgate do processo de formulação e implementação das ações integradas e descentralizadas de saúde comparece como de fundamental importância para a consolidação dos pressupostos do SUS, baseados nas diretr;zes constitucionais de universalidade, integralidade, descentralização e participação da comunidade na gestão do Sistema. Os limites desta consolidação são medidos através da verificação das competências das diferentes esferas de governo; do exercício do controle social pela população; e, das possibilidades de financiamento do sistema.

Este trabalho estuda empiricamente alguns fatores determinantes das transferências intergovernamentais na área da saúde no Brasil. Em especial, discute e investiga a existência de uma relação positiva entre arrecadação municipal e o recebimento de recursos federais através do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) pelos municípios brasileiros. Como a legislação do SUS atrela gastos dos municípios obrigatórios em saúde a uma parcela de sua arrecadação, o fenômeno também pôde ser investigado à luz da teoria do flypaper effect. A análise empírica foi realizada através da estimação de modelos em painel com efeitos fixos. Para tanto, utilizou-se dados dos municípios brasileiros no período de 2002 a 2010, obtidos, em sua maioria, através do Departamento de Informações do SUS (DATASUS) e do Sistema de Informações sobre Orçamentos Públicos em Saúde (SIOPS), ambos do Ministério da Saúde. Os resultados apontam que a arrecadação municipal exerce, de fato, um impacto positivo e significante sobre o recebimento de transferências. Considerando o aspecto redistributivo, essa relação pode não ser desejável. Argumentamos sobre a possibilidade de que os recursos repassados pelo SUS não sejam suficientes, de modo que uma contrapartida financeira dos governos locais seria necessária para cobrir os custos dos programas e serviços em sua totalidade. Foram identificados também indícios de que pode haver fatores políticos influenciando o recebimento de recursos do SUS.

A crise por que passam os Hospitais Universitários – HU’s, incluindo o Hospital Universitário Gaffrée e Guinle, atualmente, deve ser analisada e entendida como decorrente da crise institucional por que passa o aparelho formador na área de saúde, da crise de financiamento e da estrutura de gastos do sistema de saúde e de condução das políticas públicas. No entanto, é possível estabelecer novas bases de parceria dos HU’s com os gestores do Sistema Único de Saúde - SUS, para construção dos instrumentos necessários tanto para a efetivação da hierarquização e regionalização dos serviços, como para novas diretrizes curriculares, contribuindo, assim, na superação de alguns fatores determinantes da crise. A lógica organizacional da inserção no Sistema Único de Saúde, força os HU’s a adaptarem-se ao atendimento da demanda espontânea e à necessidade de faturamento na tabela do SUS, com conseqüentes distorções no atendimento, desperdícios e pouca resolutividade do sistema, levando a um descompasso entre demanda, oferta, modelo assistencial, currículo e pesquisa.

This doctoral dissertation provides a detailed analysis of the Brazilian cabinet according to the concepts of a multiparty presidential system. Appointing politicians as ministers is one of the most important coalition-building tools and has been widely used by minority presidents. This dissertation will therefore analyze the high-level Brazilian national bureaucracy between 1995 and 2014. It argues that the ministries – or departments – are not equal, and that allied parties therefore take into account the different characteristics of a ministry when demanding positions as a patronage strategy or for use as other kinds of political assets. After reviewing the literature on the theme, followed by a comparative analysis of the Brazilian, Chilean, Mexican, and Guatemalan cabinets, all the Brazilian ministries will be weighed and ranked on a scale that is able to measure their political importance and attractiveness. This rank takes into account variables such as the budgetary power, the ability to spend money according the ministers’ will, the ability to hire new employees, the ministries’ influence over other governmental agents such as companies, agencies, and so on, the ministers’ tenure in office. Finally, a proxy is provided that seeks to identify the normative power a department may hold. All of these characteristics will then be taken into account in considering the representatives’ opinion, thus helping to ascertain whether the cabinet appointment has been coalescent among the several parties that belong to the president’s coalition.

The inclusion of the dentist in the Family Health Program (FHP) teams designates a reorganization of the mouth health care in your country and establishes a new scenario in Brazilian odontology, through of a new way to organize the basic health care, creating conditions to consolidate in mouth health practice actions, in the level of the basic attention, the validation of Unique Health System (UHS) constitutional principles. The purpose of this research is to verify if the actuation of mouth health teams (MHT) dentists, in Natal city north sanitary district, is tuned with FHP goals.The target research population was composed by all dentists working in Basic Health Units (BHU) of Natal north sanitary district. Fifth-eight questionnaires were applied and using open and closed questions we look for identify the functional characteristics of each BHU, the dentists professional attributions on each BHU, as well as the clinical procedures that they execute. This research also searched to identify the factors that facilitate and/or difficult the inclusion process and the dentists activities performance on these BHUs, as well as the necessary actions to north sanitary district MHTs to fulfill the objectives proposed by FHP. The results point that the inclusion of mouth health actions in north sanitary district FHPs brought the incorporation of new values to the used practices. Whoever, its necessary a more frequent evaluation of the carried actions, in a way they can be adapted to the real community necessities, and, is fundamental the data accompaniment, for that these serve of base for planning and redirecting activities, in a way that we do not have only a reproduction of traditional practices, fragmented and isolated, but a truly substitution of the traditional practices and a new way of promoting health

The Family Health Program implemented in Brazilian municipalities from 1994 represents today the most promising proposal to promote important changes in municipality`s health systems, to allow universal access to health care, comprehensiveness, equity and to promote social control, achievements provided by the health reform process and incorporated to the Unified Health System principles. However, many are the challenges imposed to the Family Health Program so that it can cause these advances. In this study, we aimed to answer the following research question: what are the results of the Family Health Program in relation to beneficiaries at small, medium and large municipalities? The hypothesis that guided this work was that the variation in levels of achievement/results (strict, impacts and effects) of the Family Health Program is related to the size of the municipalities. Therefore, our general aim was to evaluate the results of the Family Health Program in municipalities at Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. And as specific objectives, to measure strict results, effects and impacts of the Program, from the criteria of efficiency and effectiveness on the beneficiated population, and to measure the Program`s impact on the organization of municipality`s health system. This is an impact assessment research, developed from multiple case studies with quanti-qualitative approach. The study included small municipalities (Acari and Taipu), midsize (Canguaretama and Santa Cruz) and large (Natal and Mossoró). The individuals chosen to the research were users/beneficiaries of the Program and health professionals. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics and content analysis compared from the Program`s logical /theoretical model. The results obtained in relation to the principles evaluated (universality, comprehensiveness and community participation) presented that municipalities show different results, although not directly related to the size, but related with characteristics of the Program`s implementation form in each municipality and the arrangements made for its operationalization. The positive effect that generated significant change in people`s lives has been linked to the increase of access and to the decrease of geographic barriers. However, to the municipal health system, regarding the changes desired by the Program, it was not observed a positive impact, but a negative impact related to the increase of barriers for the user to access other levels of the health system

The 1988 Federal Constitution of Brazil by presenting the catalog of fundamental rights and guarantees (Title II) provides expressly that such rights reach the social, economic and cultural rights (art. 6 of CF/88) as a means not only to ratify the civil and political rights, but also to make them effective and practical in the life of the Brazilian people, particularly in the prediction of immediate application of those rights and guarantees. In this sense, health goes through condition of universal right and duty of the State, which should be guaranteed by social and economic policies aimed at reducing the risk of disease and other hazards, in addition to ensuring universal and equal access to actions and services for its promotion, protection and recovery (Article 196 by CF/88). Achieving the purposes aimed by the constituent to the area of health is the great challenge that requires the Health System and its managers. To this end, several policies have been structured in an attempt to establish actions and services for the promotion, protection and rehabilitation of diseases and disorders to health. In the mid-90s, in order to meet the guidelines and principles established by the SUS, it was established the Política Nacional de Atenção Oncológica PNAO, in an attempt to sketch out a public policy that sought to achieve maximum efficiency and to be able to give answers integral to effective care for patients with cancer, with emphasis on prevention, early detection, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and palliative care. However, many lawsuits have been proposed with applications for anticancer drugs. These actions have become very complex, both in the procedural aspects and in all material ones, especially due to the highcost drugs more requested these demands, as well as need to be buoyed by the scientific evidence of these drugs in relation to proposed treatments. The jurisprudence in this area, although the orientations as outlined by the Parliament of Supreme Court is still in the process of construction, this study is thus placed in the perspective of contributing to the effective and efficient adjudication in these actions, with focus on achieving the fundamental social rights. Given this scenario and using research explanatory literature and documents were examined 108 lawsuits pending in the Federal Court in Rio Grande do Norte, trying to identify the organs of the Judiciary behave in the face of lawsuits that seeking oncology drugs (or antineoplastic), seeking to reconcile the principles and constitutional laws and infra constitutional involving the theme in an attempt to contribute to a rationalization of this judicial practice. Finally, considering the Rational Use of health demands and the idea of belonging to the Brazilian people SUS, it is concluded that the judicial power requires ballast parameters of their decisions on evidence-based medicine, aligning these decisions housing constitutional principles that the right to health and the scientific conclusions of efficacy, effectiveness and efficiency in oncology drugs, when compared to the treatments offered by SUS

The health transition experienced in Brazilian health care model requires a metamorphosis in human and society, placing new demands on health and education. The Faculty of Science, Culture and Extension of Rio Grande do Norte (Facex), aware of their responsibilities to the Health System, which brings the principle of comprehensiveness as its structural axis, dared to implement a course of nursing in complex thinking and Experiential Pedagogy Humanescente with curriculum inter / transdisciplinary. For deployment of proprosta was not enough to reform thinking of educators, there was a need corporalizar new teaching practices that are aimed at the integral formation of human beings. In this context, emerged the workshop on Human Education autopoietic, self-forming area of the educator, where he developed an Action Research Existential (PA-E) which enabled experience, describe and analyze how the human autopoietic educators could contribute to the practice educational humanescente transdisciplinary curriculum project. Were worked out in meetings, knowledge necessary to practice the transdisciplinary 1st Meeting - learn to create; 2nd Meeting - learn to recognize the laws of nature with emphasis on complexity theory, 3rd Meeting - learn to organize, 4th meeting - namely autoestruturar themselves; 5th Meeting - know how to choose, 6th Meeting - knowing innovate 7th Meeting - namely exchange. Next an autobiographical perspective, we chose the metaphorical possibility to narrate the ways and strategies covered by the author and apprentice in the company of the Little Prince de Saint-Exupery, in search of a sensible pedagogical practice complex, which promotes re-enchant transdisicplinar education. The route involved five methodological connections: a literature review which relate to training for care in undergraduate nursing: the study of learning processes that drive the formation humanopoiética, emphasizing the relationship that involves the complexity and embodiment in the educational process transdisciplinary, highlighting the analysis of what is to learn from the findings of biosciences and recent cognitive theories of Maturana and Varela, the description of the interdisciplinary curriculum of the nursing course of Facex and Training Workshop, Human autopoietic, with emphasis on Experiential Education Humanescente; the report of seven meetings of the Workshops (cocoon), recording the experiences and listening to educators (luminescent butterflies), the final reflections with learning opportunized. Experientiality lived through, the expressions and words, educators say the influence of workshops for their teaching practices, highlighting it as a space for selforganizing, creating, learning and enchantment, and can identify the workshop as a place of transformation necessary for deployment an interdisciplinary curriculum. The knowledge emerging from the study indicate the need for permanent spaces of self, in which the educator learns from its body, between cognitive processes and vital, and in the experiences of their formative process the opportunity to act on the dimensions of knowing and being

The study aimed to identify the quality of care and knowledge of health rights of people with chronic venous ulcers (VU) in Brasilian National Health Care System (SUS). It is a cross-sectional study, with quantitative approach, performed at the University Hospital Onofre Lopes (HUOL). The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of HUOL (CAAE nº 0148.0.051.000-10). The sample by accessibility was composed for 30 people with VU treated at the outpatient surgical clinic of HUOL. For data collection we used a structured questionnaire composed of two parts: sociodemographic characteristics and of health, of care and the clinical course of VU; and knowledge of people with VU about the rights of health. The results were processed using SPSS 15.0 and analyzed by descriptive statistics. Given the characterizations sociodemographic and health presented, we identified a clientele of users with VU predominantly female (76,7%), aged from 60 years (66,7%), married/ stable union (60,0%), low education level (83,3%), family income lower than a minimum wage (73,3%), unemployeds and with chronic diseases (53,3%), sleep greater than or equal to 6 hours (76,7%) and were not alcoholics or smokers (93,3%). In relation to clinical conditions, were shown the presence of one or more relapses of VU (73,3%), predominance of granulation tissue/epithelialization in the bed of VU (60,0%), exudate serosanguineous (43,3%), in quantity medium/large (60,0%), with no predominance of presence or absence of odor (50,0%), all patients with tissue loss in grade III / IV, no signs of infection (73,3%) and presence of intense pain (50,0%). In the last 30 days the main venue of achievement of dressing was the HUOL (100,0%), the main compression therapy used was the Unna boot (60,0%) and on inability to perform the dressing on the unit were the own patients who made the exchange at home (40,0%). The majority of respondents listed out more positive factors associated with quality of care (56,7%) were satisfied with the care of SUS (76,7%), claimed to have knowledge about their rights (70,0%), but at the same time did not know the meaning of the acronym SUS (90,0%) and classified their level of information as inappropriate (70,0%). We realize that people with VU identified as good the quality of care and demonstrated inadequate knowledge about their rights to health in the SUS, but showed interest in acquiring more information. The basic rights to entry in the SUS are constitutionally guaranteed and need to be disseminated in order to make them known to the population, so it can be implemented and ensured a greater resolution assistance in treating this type of injury

A partir da análise da Política Nacional de Saúde Mental formulada nos últimos anos e das experiências desenvolvidas após 1987 no país, procura-se compreender como o Sistema Único de Saúde tem contribuído ao avanço da reforma psiquiátrica nos municípios; verificar como a assistência oferecida nesses municípios está viabilizando os princípios da reforma psiquiátrica e a melhora das condições de vida dos usuários, bem como pesquisar o papel dos trabalhadores e gestores na construção de novas práticas de cuidado em Saúde Mental. A análise das práticas discursivas aponta que os vários segmentos sociais envolvidos na Saúde Mental conhecem os princípios e propostas da reforma psiquiátrica. No entanto, as gestões municipais não assumem integralmente as propostas do Ministério da Saúde para a área, sob a alegação de falta de recursos financeiros para a contrapartida exigida. Os usuários e familiares têm aos poucos assumido as novas propostas de intervenção, mas os mecanismos de participação e organização popular ainda são incipientes. Por fim, deve-se destacar que, para uma efetiva consolidação das propostas atuais da reforma psiquiátrica, é necessário um maior compromisso dos gestores com a atenção em Saúde Mental, maior investimento nas equipes multiprofissionais, o estímulo à organização e à participação dos usuários e familiares e a integralidade dos dispositivos de saúde, de assistência social e de cultura existentes nas cidades.

OBJETIVO: Avaliar qualidade do serviço prestado aos pacientes de cirurgia cardíaca no período hospitalar, em serviço do SUS, identificando as expectativas e percepções dos pacientes. Relacionar qualidade de serviço com gênero, faixa etária e circulação extracorpórea. MÉTODOS: Estudaram-se 82 pacientes (52,4% do sexo feminino e 47,6% do masculino) submetidos a cirurgia cardíaca eletiva, operados por toracotomia médio-esternal, idade: 31 a 83 anos (média 60,4 ± 13,2 anos), período: março a setembro de 2006. Avaliou-se a qualidade do serviço em dois momentos: expectativas no pré-operatório e percepções do atendimento recebido no 6º dia de pós-operatório; mediante aplicação da escala SERVQUAL modificada (SERVQUAL-Card). O resultado foi obtido pela diferença da somatória das notas das percepções e expectativas por meio de análise estatística. RESULTADOS: A escala SERVQUAL-Card foi validada estatisticamente, apresentando adequado índice de consistência interna. Encontrou-se maior frequência de revascularização do miocárdio 55 (67,0%); primeira cirurgia cardíaca 72 (87,8%) e utilização de CEC 69 (84,1%). Verificaram-se altos valores para expectativas e percepções, com resultados significantes (P<0,05). Observou-se relação significante entre qualidade de serviço com gênero, na empatia (P=0,04) e faixa etária, na confiabilidade (P=0,02). Não se observou significância entre CEC e qualidade de serviço. CONCLUSÃO: A qualidade dos serviços foi satisfatória. O paciente demonstrou expectativa alta ao serviço médicohospitalar. Mulheres apresentaram maior percepção da qualidade na empatia, jovens na confiabilidade. A utilização de CEC não está relacionada com qualidade do serviço nesta amostra. Os dados obtidos sugerem que a qualidade deste serviço de saúde pode ser monitorada pelo emprego periódico da escala SERQUAL.
