Abstract:

This article aims to analyze the potential, limits and challenges of regional governance in the implementation process of health care networks in three Brazilian regions: Alto Solimões (Amazonas), Belém (Pará) and an interstate region comprising Tocantins, Pará and Maranhão states (TOPAMA). The study takes into account the implementation evaluation of the Health Care Network Quality Improvement Project (QualiSUS-Network Project). We employed qualitative methods, including the analysis of official documents and semi-structured interviews with key actors,July to December 2014. Governance analysis was held based on three components: the actors involved, especially local implementation conducting groups and their coordination capacity; the strategies used for strengthening regional governance, anchored on intervention’s logical models; and the implementation of local health care networks. The results showed that QualiSUS-Network Project strengthened regional governance and integration differently, according to the region. Such differences seem conditioned by stakeholders interests and consensus capacity on health and political priorities. Regional management committees formed the main governance strategy.
