    Texto para Discussão 022 | 2017 Discussion Paper 022 | 2017 Federal University Hospitals and Stochastic Frontier Model Romero C. B. Rocha Instituto de Economia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro André Médici Banco Mundial This paper can be downloaded without charge from http://www.ie.ufrj.br/index.php/index-publicacoes/textos-para-discussao Federal University Hospitals and Stochastic Frontier Model July, 2017 Romero C. B. Rocha Instituto de Economia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro André Médici Banco Mundial Resumo O objetivo deste trabalho é caracterizar os Hospitais Universitários Federais (HUFs) brasileiros em termos de sua importância, suas fraquezas, suas fortalezas e suas necessidades. Além disso, o trabalho vai analisar a relação entre os HUFs e o sistema hospitalar SUS, tentando explicar como eles podem melhorar a qualidade do atendimento e racionalizar esta relação. Revisitamos alguns estudos para entender a melhor maneira dos hospitais organizarem sua governança. Finalmente, rodamos um modelo de fronteira estocástica no intuito de construir rankings de eficiência para os hospitais e analisar o quanto eles poderiam aumentar sua produção com os insumos que possuem. Os resultados encontrados nos estudos revisitados mostram que a melhor maneira de organizar a governança é através do modelo de Organizações Sociais (OS), na qual o governo contrata um operador privado sem fins lucrativos para administrar as unidades. No entanto, as unidades continuam sendo propriedade do governo e 100% financiada pelo governo sob um contrato de desempenho baseado em resultado com riscos financeiros. Os resultados encontrados no modelo de fronteira mostram que os hospitais estão mais perto da eficiência na produção ambulatorial que na produção hospitalar.
