Avaliação de impacto do Programa de Fortalecimento e Melhoria da Qualidade dos Hospitais do SUS/Minas Gerais (Pro-Hosp)

Resumo

This study evaluated the impact of the Program for Strengthening and Improving the Quality of Hospitals SUS-MG (Pro-Hosp). Therefore, the method employed was difference-in-difference, which allows us to evaluate the impact of public policy when the indicator assessed is observed in more than one period in time. We selected four indicators of hospital performance: the average proportion of cesarean section, the average occupancy rate, the average mortality rate and average lengh of stay. It was found that the Pro-Hosp impacted the average proportion of cesarean sections in the expected direction, i.e. to reduce them.Keywords: health policy, the Unified Health System, development indicator, developmental evaluation, local government
