Epidemiological changes resulting from population aging have motivated a series of transformations in global health systems. In this sense, from the 1990s onwards, the England begins to discuss the adoption of a health care model called Intermediate Care, which promoted the development of intermediate care services in several countries. The objective of this work is to gather and analyze the national literature and produced about Intermediate Care, with emphasis on the services of Community Hospitals.

The descriptors were combined in Portuguese, English, Spanish and Italian by using the Boolean OR operator. The search was carried out in the bases VHL Regional Portal, Pubmed and BDTD. A filter was used in the databases to obtain “available documents”, in line with the Budapest Open agreement Access Initiative; and were not limited to year of publication or language. of documents included for qualitative synthesis, the following information was extracted: author, year of publication, country, language, study design, document format, objective and main results. In addition, a qualitative synthesis of the documents was carried out with a view to contrasting results and authors' arguments to compose the discussion of this work. Results: On the three bases, the use of search keys generated 72,354 documents. With the application of the filter "available documents", this number was reduced to 34,027, for which the reading the titles. After reading the titles, 203 were included for the next step. documents, in which the abstracts were read, including 134, of which 73 were excluded because they are duplicities; resulting in 61 documents included for reading in full.
