Zusammenfassung: | This paper presents the experience of implementing the methodology of cost-based activities (ABC) at The Ribeirao Preto Medical School Clinics Hospital of the University of Sao Paulo (HCFMRP-USP), through a case study over a period of five years. Characteristics of high technology university hospitals, such as teaching and assistance, make their costs higher than those of non-university hospitals. In its institutional history, HCFMRP-USP lacked a consistent methodology for measuring and assessing the costs of its assistance activities. However, difficulties in financing these activities, associated with a complete restructuring in the hospital's healthcare model linked to the National Health System, have furthered the adoption of cost mapping, in order to assess adequately the impact of teaching activities in healthcare costs, considering that the country's democratic agenda has demanded transparency, accountability and, above all, efficiency in public funds management. Key words: public university hospital; cost management; government sector; costing systems; accountability. Este artigo apresenta a experiencia de implantacao da metodologia de custos baseada em atividades (ABC) do Hospital das Clinicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirao Preto da Universidade de Sao Paulo, por meio de um estudo de caso, num periodo de cinco anos. As caracteristicas dos hospitais universitarios de alta tecnologia, tais como atividades docente-assistenciais e servicos basicos de saude, fazem com que seus custos sejam mais elevados do que os de hospitais nao universitarios. Na sua trajetoria institucional, o HCFMRP-USP nao possuia uma metodologia consistente de mensuracao e avaliacao dos custos de sua atividade assistencial. No entanto, dificuldades de financiamento de suas atividades, associadas a uma completa reestruturacao em seu modelo de atendimento vinculado ao Sistema Unico de Saude, impulsionaram a adocao do mapeamento de custos por atividades, para demonstrar, de forma adequada, como pode ser mensurado o impacto do ensino nos custos assistenciais, visto que a agenda democratica nacional tem reivindicado transparencia, accountability e, fundamentalmente, eficiencia na gestao dos recursos publicos. Palavras-chave : hospital universitario publico; gestao de custos; setor governamental; sistemas de custeio; accountability. |
