A gestão de sistemas de saúde se manifesta sob a forma geral de longas filas de espera, que são analisados neste contexto, incluindo algumas abordagens que têm sido propostas e implementadas em Pernambuco, a fim de resolver o problema. Um modelo de crescimento econômico ótimo destacando o setor de saúde, e, em seguida, operando em conjunto, os setores de saúde e educação é proposto. Os resultados do princípio do máximo de Pontryagin aplicado a este modelo mostram os benefícios mútuos para ambos os setores e os seus efeitos no bem-estar da sociedade. Um estudo de caso de filas de espera no Hospital da Restauração, em Recife, Pernambuco, é apresentado. === An overview of the Brazilian health care system is presented, with an emphasis in the Pernambuco state case. One central issue concerning health systems management manifests itself under the general form of long waiting lines, which are then here analyzed in this context, including some approaches that have been proposed and implemented in Pernambuco in order to tackle the problem. An optimal economic growth model highlighting the health sector, and then, operating jointly, the health and education sectors, is proposed. The results of the Pontryagin Maximum Principle applied to this model show the mutual benefits for both sectors and their effects in the community welfare. A case study of queueing systems in Hospital da Restaura¸c˜ao (an emergency hospital) in Recife, Pernambuco, is presented.
