Inovação da Gestão dos Hospitais Públicos no Sistema de Saúde Português

Abstract

The role and importance of innovation in all processes is recognized internationally as one of the main drives for development and sustainability in various areas of activity. In Portugal, innovation in the health sector was applied to hospital management, which in the first phase adopted business management practices and later a model of public-private partnership. In this article, using the method of literature review and data analysis, we intend to evaluate the better production in management with the creation of enterprise-hospitals and public-private partnerships and verify if there is any difference in the results of access and quality among the new models. As a result of the analysis, it can be noted that innovation has positively influenced both organizations, and they show increase in production. However, it was found that enterprise-hospitals have better access indicators and hospitals in public-private partnership show better quality results.
