Resumo: This article analyzes the process of structural transformation within the Brazilian private health services market since the 2000s, with emphasis on the growing participation of financial funds and foreign capital in the process of expansion and consolidation of the sector. The analysis of the movement of foreign capital into health services and plans in Brazil was developed from the construction of a database with a total of 297 equity operations involving companies with activities in health services, including companies operating health plans and insurance and companies administering health benefits. The analysis of these operations shows that the influx of foreign capital was fundamental to enable the centralization of capital in certain companies and catalyze the process of concentration and structural transformation of the health services sector over the last two decades. We concluded that the intensification of the intercapitalist dispute within the health services market led to the emergence of large corporations and new business models, with special emphasis on the emergence of verticalized care networks (operation of plans, hospital services, outpatient services, diagnosis and treatment, and primary care).

El análisis del movimiento de ingreso del capital extranjero en los servicios y planes de salud en Brasil fue desarrollado a partir de la construcción de una base datos con un total de 297 operaciones de capital de empresas con actividades en servicios de salud; inclusive las empresas operadoras de planes y seguros de salud y las empresas administradoras de beneficios en salud. El análisis de esas operaciones muestra que la entrada de capital extranjero fue fundamental para viabilizar la centralización de capital en determinadas empresas y catalizar el proceso de concentración y transformación estructural del sector de servicios de salud a lo largo de las últimas dos décadas. La conclusión que el recrudecimiento de la disputa intercapitalista dentro del mercado de servicios de salud llevó a la emergencia de grandes corporaciones en el mercado y nuevos modelos de negocio, con destaque especial para surgimiento de redes verticalizadas de atención (operación de planes, servicios hospitalarios, ambulatorios, de diagnóstico y tratamiento y de atención básica).Este artigo analisa o processo de transformação estrutural no mercado privado de serviços de saúde brasileiro a partir dos anos 2000, com ênfase na crescente participação de fundos financeiros e do capital estrangeiro no processo de expansão e consolidação do setor. A análise do movimento de ingresso do capital estrangeiro nos serviços e planos de saúde no Brasil foi desenvolvida a partir da construção de uma base dados com um total de 297 operações patrimoniais envolvendo empresas com atividades em serviços de saúde, inclusive operadoras de planos e seguros de saúde e administradoras de benefícios em saúde. A análise dessas operações evidencia que o afluxo de capital estrangeiro foi fundamental para viabilizar a centralização de capital em determinadas empresas e catalisar o processo de concentração e transformação estrutural do setor de serviços de saúde ao longo das últimas duas décadas. Conclui-se que o acirramento da disputa intercapitalista no mercado de serviços de saúde levou à emergência de grandes corporações no mercado e a novos modelos de negócio, com destaque especial para o surgimento de redes verticalizadas de atendimento (operação de planos, serviços hospitalares, ambulatoriais, de diagnóstico e tratamento e de atenção básica).Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2023-09-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/xmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/8374Reports in Public Health; Vol. 39 No. 9 (2023): SeptemberCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 39 n. 9 (2023): Setembro1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZporhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/8374/18690https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/8374/18691Copyright (c) 2023 Cadernos de Saúde Públicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDuvaresch Kamia, FelipeAntonio Vargas, Marco2023-09-19T17:58:42Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/8374Revistahttps://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:2024-03-06T13:09:33.562132Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
