Abstract:

The structure and performance of medical and dental care were analyzed in two health regions that differed socioeconomically and in the provision of services in order, through case study was undertaken in the regions Norte-Barretos (São Paulo) and Juazeiro (Bahia)2007 and 2014 taking into account political, organizational and structural dimensions and indicators of structure and performance. The results showed that the regionalization was positively recognized; the distribution of services did not meet the population demand and the installed capacity of the health care network was not adequate to the health needs of the population. Norte-Barretos stood out in terms of structure (except for potential coverage of OHT in the FHS) and effectiveness, while Juazeiro stood out in relation to efficiency, that is, although with less resources, the use of services was relatively higher. The observed pattern seems to reflect aspects related to the regionalization and the political trajectory of each assistance, the silos effect. The results may support the design of health policies aimed at overcoming the undersized structure of public health services in regions of lower socioeconomic development and search for parameters and coordination mechanisms aiming better balance in performance indicators.
