- Social protection in Latin America and the Caribbean: changes, contradictions, and limits(2017) VIANA, Ana Luiza d'Avila; FONSECA, Ana Maria Medeiros da; SILVA, Hudson Pacifico daRecent studies suggest that governments in the majority of Latin American and Caribbean countries were able to expand social investments and introduce innovations in social protection policies in the last two decades with positive results in the actions' coverage and impact. However, the restrictions imposed by the current fiscal crisis and the rise of governments more ideologically aligned with the neoliberal discourse in various countries in the region point to a new retreat of the state from the social area, thereby compromising recent advances. The article aims to discuss the changes, contradictions, and limits of recent social protection standards in Latin America and the Caribbean. The discussion includes three items: a description of the history of social protection in the region, seeking to identify its principal historical periods and characteristics (benefits, target public, and financing); the social protection models that have been implemented in the region; and the specific case of health. We argue that although countries have adopted different solutions in the field of social protection, the policies' hybrid nature (with extensive private sector participation in the financing, supply, and management of services) and the prevalence of segmented models (with differential access according to individuals' social status) have been predominant traits in social protection in Latin America and the Caribbean, thus limiting the possibilities for greater equity and social justice.

- Neoliberal meritocracy and financial capitalism: consequences for social protection and health(2018) VIANA, Ana Luiza d'Avila; SILVA, Hudson Pacifico daThere is inherent tension between the idea of health as a social right and of health as a private good. From the latter perspective, healthcare provision is brought closer to the logic of ownership, where access depends on ability to pay. The prioritization of markets (over governments), economic incentives (over social or cultural norms), and entrepreneurship (over collective or community action), one of the hallmarks of neoliberalism, constitutes a project to dismantle the welfare state, defined as a set of policy mechanisms designed to meet collective needs. This article examines the above process and its consequences for social protection and health by reflecting upon two phenomena that threaten the principle of health as a social right: neoliberal ideas and policies; and financial capitalism. We argue that the common good must be defended or insulated from the negative effects of financial capitalism and from the erosion and fragmentation of public institutions and social protection systems caused by neoliberalism.
- Unidades de Pronto Atendimento (UPAs): características da gestão às redes de atenção no Paraná(2015) UCHIMURA, Liza Yurie Teruya; VIANA, Ana Luiza d'Ávila; SILVA, Hudson Pacífico da; IBAñEZ, NelsonThe Emergency Care Units (UPAs) are classified from the National Policy of Emergency Care, according to the installed physical capacity, the number of beds available, people management, and the ability to perform daily medical consultations. This study aimed to identify the structural characteristics and of service planning of the UPAs of the Paraná care networks. It is a case study with semi-structured interviews carried out with UPAs coordinators, in 2012. The data were stored and analyzed in absolute and relative frequencies. The UPAs need to be integrated into a health care network policy to expand its resoluteness.
- Managers and clinicians: Perceptions of the impact of regionalization in two regions in Canada(2019) UCHIMURA, L.Y.T.; VIANA, A.L.D.; MARCHILDON, G.P.The aim of this paper is to examine the approach taken to regionalization in Ontario, Canada, and its impact on health system performance as perceived by managers and clinicians. This is a qualitative study, with thematic analysis, based on interviews with 23 managers and clinicians working in primary healthcare and emergency care in two regions of Ontario. Our findings demonstrate that both sets of actors see regional structures as contributing significantly to improving their respective health system although they also identify areas that require improvement. Managers and clinicians agreed on propositions to focus on health determinants, major considerations specific to the local context (population, geography) and support for a three-level system with well-defined functions. However, they also expressed differing propositions about the political power of hospitals. © 2019 The Canadian College of Health Leaders.
