Sumario:This paper presents a descriptive, quantitative study aimed at identifying optimal hos-pital investment patterns in Brazil from 2006 through 2011.Operational data were collected from the Brazilian Single Health System Database (DATASUS) and financial data from accounting state-ments available online. Several techniques were used for data analysis, namely: descriptive statis-tics, Kruskal-Wallis tests, Spearman’s rank correlation test, and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Legal nature and state location impacted on the hospital’s efficiency in the 2006-2011period. The results indicate that non-profit hospitals are oriented to providing services to a larger number of people than for-profit hospitals, which in turn are strongly driven by financial results in their use of resources. Five of the hospitals had optimal investment patterns according to the models developed in this study.
