Proposta de modelo de acompanhamento dos gastos em saúde: uma análise para o câncer no período 2012-2021

Abstract

Cancer, as one of the main causes of deaths in the world, causes economic problems for nations. In addition to being critical, its expenses put pressure on the public budget, also causing loss of productivity due to absences from work, deaths and premature retirements. Despite all the economic and social weight of cancer, there are still few studies on the costs associated with this disease. The absence of more dynamic information prevents more detailed and efficient planning of the management process, so a more in-depth view of these correlations will allow for more efficient planning and management in an extremely sensitive area of health policy in Brazil. The objective of this work is to carry out an economic analysis of expenses with hospitalizations in the Unified Health System (SUS) from 2012 to 2021. To this end, it uses a methodology that begins with the extraction of all public data in the period, considering a subset of previously chosen Hospital Admissions System (SIH/SUS) fields and all cancer-related procedure codes used in the SUS Procedures, Medications and Orthoses, Prostheses and Special Materials Table Management System (SIGTAP). After extraction using a program developed in another project at LEMAS/IMS/UERJ, the data was loaded into a Business Intelligence (BI) application called TABLEAU for analysis and presentation of results, followed by a discussion that included comparisons with other national data and international. In sequence. these extracted data were loaded into a MySQL database system for future analysis.
