Resumo: OBJECTIVE: To describe the management performance of philanthropic hospitals that operate their own health plans, in comparison with philanthropic hospitals as a whole in Brazil. METHODS: The managerial structures of philanthropic hospitals that operated their own health plans were compared with those seen in a representative group from the philanthropic hospital sector, in six dimensions: management and planning, economics and finance, human resources, technical services, logistics services and information technology. Data from a random sample of 69 hospitals within the philanthropic hospital sector and 94 philanthropic hospitals that operate their own health plans were evaluated. In both cases, only the hospitals with less than 599 beds were included. RESULTS: The results identified for the hospitals that operate their own health plans were more positive in all the managerial dimensions compared. In particular, the economics and finance and information technology dimensions were highlighted, for which more than 50% of the hospitals that operated their own health plans presented almost all the conditions considered. CONCLUSIONS: The philanthropic hospital sector is important in providing services to the Brazilian Health System (SUS). The challenges in maintaining and developing these hospitals impose the need to find alternatives. Stimulation of a public-private partnership in this segment, by means of operating provider-owned health plans or providing services to other health plans that work together with SUS, is a field that deserves more in-depth analysis.

OBJETIVO: Descrever o desempenho gerencial de hospitais filantrópicos com operadoras de planos de saúde em comparação com o conjunto de hospitais filantrópicos no Brasil. MÉTODOS: Foram comparadas as estruturas gerenciais presentes nos hospitais filantrópicos com operadoras próprias de planos de saúde com aquelas observadas num conjunto representativo do setor hospitalar filantrópico, em seis dimensões: direção e planejamento, econômico-financeira, recursos humanos, serviços técnicos, serviços logísticos e tecnologia de informações. Consideraram-se os dados de uma amostra aleatória de 69 hospitais, extraída do setor hospitalar filantrópico, e 94 hospitais filantrópicos com operadoras próprias de planos de saúde. Nos dois casos incluíram-se apenas os hospitais com menos de 599 leitos. RESULTADOS: Foram identificados resultados mais positivos para o conjunto de hospitais com operadoras próprias de planos de saúde em todas as dimensões gerenciais comparadas. Em particular, destacaram-se as dimensões econômico-financeira e de tecnologia de informações, nas quais mais de 50% dos hospitais com operadoras apresentaram quase todas as condições consideradas. CONCLUSÕES: O setor hospitalar filantrópico é importante na prestação de serviços ao Sistema Único de Saúde. Os desafios para a sua manutenção e desenvolvimento impõem encontrar alternativas. O fomento de uma parceria público-privado neste segmento, por meio da operação de planos próprios ou prestação de serviços a outros planos de saúde convivendo com o SUS, constitui um campo que merece uma análise mais aprofundada.
