Abstract

Funding in the Unified Health System in the northeastern states between 2007 and 2017, under the terms of the funding blocks, was analyzed. A quantitative study used the System on Public

Health Budgets (SIOPS), analyzing seven indicators: Total Expenditure on Health; Total Health Expenditure per Inhabitant; Correction of the values ??of the Total Health Expenditure per Inhabitant; Actual Increase in Total Health Expenditure per Inhabitant; Percentage of Federal Health Transfers; Percentage of Own Revenue applied to Health; Proportion of Health Expenditure by Financing Blocks. Among the northeastern states, the highest total expenditure on health/inhabitant was R$ 544.60; the biggest real increase in health expenditure/habitant was R$158.00. In 2017, all states invested the minimum proportion of the treasury and between 2007 and 2017, there was a decrease in investment in three states. There was a reduction in the proportion of federal transfers to the states and in the three years, more than 70% of the invested resources were destined to the Medium and High Complexity block, with a reduction in Health Surveillance actions. The perpetuation of the underfunding of the SUS, in the Northeast makes the consolidation of universalization and the right to health unfeasible.
