Resumo: Purpose: Analyze the relationship between accounting information and the performance of supplementary health care providers (OPS) based on economic and financial indicators. The study assessed operational, liquidity, profitability, and capital structure indicators in addition to the influence of the size and type of provider on the Supplementary Health Performance Index (IDSS), which is a proxy for the OPS performance. Methodology: First, factor analysis was carried out on 18 economic-financial indicators of 568 OPS, which resulted in five factors (operational, liquidity, profitability, capital structure, and size). Finally, a model was developed in which ordinary least squares (MQO) and TOBIT regressions were applied to explain the IDSS, as a function of the five calculated factors plus four dummy variables for the types of OPS. Results: The results showed that the OPS data and economic-financial indicators are jointly relevant to explain the IDSS, indicating that the accounting information can portray aspects of the supplementary health sector, which go beyond the purely financial dimension. Contributions of the Study: The study contributes to the literature by bringing strong evidence that OPS accounting information is important to explain part of the supplementary health sector’s economic environment, surpassing by more than twice its own informational content in the IDSS, which highlights the usefulness and relevance of such information to users of OPS.

Para ello, se evaluaron indicadores operativos, de liquidez, rentabilidad, estructura de capital, además de la influencia que ejerce el tamaño y tipo de proveedor en el puntaje del Índice de desempeño de salud complementaria (IDSS), que es un proxy del desempeño del OPS. Metodología: Primero, se realizó una Análisis Factorial sobre 18 indicadores económico-financieros de 568 OPS, que resultó en cinco factores (operacional, liquidez, rentabilidad, estructura de capital y tamaño). Finalmente, se desarrolló un modelo en el que se aplicaron los mínimos cuadrados ordinarios (MQO) y regresiones TOBIT para explicar el IDSS, en función de los cinco factores calculados más cuatro variables ficticias para los tipos de OPS. Resultados: Los resultados mostraron que los datos e indicadores económico-financieros de las OPS son conjuntamente relevantes para explicar el IDSS, indicando que la información contable tiene la capacidad de retratar aspectos del sector suplementario de la salud, que van más allá de la dimensión puramente financiera. Contribuciones del Estudio: El estudio contribuye a la literatura al traer evidencia sólida de que las informaciones contables de OPS son importantes para explicar parte del entorno económico de salud suplementaria, superando en más del doble su contenido informativo propio contenido en el IDSS, lo que resalta la utilidad y relevancia de dicha información para usuarios de OPS.Objetivo: Analisar a relação entre as informações contábeis e o desempenho das operadoras de saúde suplementar (OPS), com base em indicadores econômico-financeiros. Para tanto, foram avaliados indicadores operacionais, de liquidez, rentabilidade, estrutura de capital, além da influência exercida pelo tamanho e o tipo de operadora sobre a pontuação do Índice de Desempenho da Saúde Suplementar (IDSS), que é uma proxy para o desempenho das OPS. Metodologia: Primeiramente foi realizada uma Análise Fatorial em 18 indicadores econômico-financeiros de 568 OPS, que resultaram em cinco fatores (operacional, liquidez, rentabilidade, estrutura de capital e tamanho). Por fim, foi elaborado um modelo em que se aplicou regressões por Mínimos Quadrados Ordinários (MQO) e TOBIT para explicar o IDSS, como função dos cinco fatores calculados mais quatro variáveis dummies para os tipos de OPS. Resultados: Os resultados mostraram que os dados e indicadores econômico-financeiros das OPS são relevantes em conjunto para explicar o IDSS, indicando que a informação contábil possui capacidade de retratar aspectos do setor de saúde suplementar, que vão além da dimensão puramente financeira. Contribuições do Estudo: O estudo contribui com a literatura ao trazer fortes indícios de que as informações contábeis das OPS são importantes para explicar parcela do ambiente econômico da saúde suplementar, superando em mais de duas vezes seu próprio conteúdo informacional contido no IDSS, o que evidencia a utilidade e a relevância de tais informações para os usuários das OPS.Portal de Periódicos Eletrônicos da UFRN2022-07-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambiente/article/view/2938610.21680/2176-9036.2022v14n2ID29386REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte; Vol. 14 No. 2 (2022): Jul./Dez.REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte; Vol. 14 Núm. 2 (2022): Jul./Dez.REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte - ISSN 2176-9036; v. 14 n. 2 (2022): Jul./Dez.2176-903610.21680/2176-9036.2022v14n2reponame:Revista Ambiente Contábilinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)instacron:UFRNenghttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambiente/article/view/29386/15864Copyright (c) 2022 REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte - ISSN 2176-9036http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTeixeira, Rudolph Fabiano Alves Pedroza Macedo, Marcelo Álvaro da Silva Santos, Odilanei Morais dos 2023-01-18T23:18:35Zoai:periodicos.ufrn.br:article/29386Revistahttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambientePUBhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambiente/oai||prof.mauriciocsilva@gmail.com2176-90362176-9036opendoar:2023-01-18T23:18:35Revista Ambiente Contábil - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)false
