Resumo: This study focuses on equity in health and specifically the geographic distribution of financial resources. The author reviews the main contemporary theories of social justice and discusses the concept of equity in general and specifically in the health field. Based on the discussion of selected international experiences (United Kingdom, Spain, and Italy), the Resource Allocation Working Party (RAWP) formula used in the United Kingdom is identified as the most adequate distributive methodology, sizing the relative needs based on the population's demographic and epidemiological profiles. Finally, the results are presented from a simulation performed for the Brazilian case, showing that a more equitable geographic distribution of financial resources would require a redistribution favoring the States of the North and Northeast. The article concludes by highlighting that a comparison of actual fund outlays by the Ministry of Health in 1994 and the results of the simulation with the RAWP methodology for the Brazilian case show that the principles written into Brazilian legislation were absent from the geographic distribution of financial resources.

Hace un repaso de las principales teorías de justicia social en el pensamiento contemporáneo y discute el concepto de equidad en general y en el campo de la salud. Tomando como base la discusión de algunas experiencias internacionales (Inglaterra, España e Italia), se identifica como metodología distributiva más adecuada la fórmula RAWP llevada a cabo en Inglaterra, que proporciona dimensiones a las necesidades relativas a partir de los perfiles tanto demográficos como epidemiológicos de la población. Finalmente se presentan los resultados obtenidos en simulación efectuados para el caso brasileño. Los resultados presentados para el caso brasileño permitieron verificar que, para una distribución geográfica de recursos financieros más equitativa, sería necesaria una redistribución en favor de los estados de las regiones Norte y Nordeste. Finalmente se destaca que, la comparación entre la utilización de recursos efectuada en 1994 por el Ministerio de Salud y los resultados obtenidos en la simulación de la metodología RAWP para el caso brasileño muestran que los principios enunciados en la legislación no estuvieron presentes en la distribución geográfica de recursos financieros.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2002-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1683Reports in Public Health; Vol. 18 No. 4 (2002): July/AugustCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 18 n. 4 (2002): Julho/Agosto1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZspahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1683/3354https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1683/3355Porto, Silvia Martainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:26:34Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/1683Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:01:58.627892Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
