This thesis analyzed planning, management and the health care system in the metropolitan region of the state of Rio de Janeiro. It is based on the theoretical framework of federalism and the historical neo-institutionalism and relied on qualitative research of descriptive character. The research was about political and institutional aspects; regulatory, organizational; practical and structural network of health services in the region. The analysis has pointed out the characteristics of three-dimensional model of Brazilian federalism the Constitution of 1988 transferred the power to establish metropolitan regions to the states, but in fact it negates the ability to intervene in municipalities and reduces political and administrative role of the states. Among the challenges raised by the thesis are: the municipal behavior of municipalities; the disparity between them; the weakening of the coordination role of the state government; discontinuity and little integration between public policies for the metropolitan areas; the lack of experience in regional and inter-sectorial planning; the need to institutionalize a metropolitan agency that, among other functions, establishes financial funds, defining sources of revenue and regional resource allocation criteria. As for health regionalization policy analysis of the installed capacity of the municipalities in the integration of regional health services the thesis highlights the weaknesses and inequalities in the distribution of the supply of services; the competitive relationship between the municipalities to incorporate most qualified productive force, the provision of specialized services and health professionals, the density and the concentration of services in the metropolitan core (the city of Rio de Janeiro). The work highlights the potential role of the new covenant management, represented by the Organizational Contract of Public Action in Health (COAP) and Health Maps as political and institutional tools in regional regulation and metropolitan health. Nevertheless, it signals that advances in regional governance will be possible with the institutionalization of a body that has autonomy to regional decision-making. The study reinforces the importance of upgrading the management of metropolitan areas and the potential for connectivity between urban public policies through the organization of public utilities on the political agenda at the expense of municipalistic practices.
