Abstract

This article aims to analyze the evolution of the interaction between Santas Casas and the Brazilian Public Health System from the historical research of the Santa Casa de Mogi Mirim. This qualitative research was based on data collected by means of a documentary research on the historical survey of Santa Casa and the Brazilian health system,  identifying the level of interaction between the institution and hospital assistance. The result of this comparative historical analysis demonstrated the intensification of the relationship between Santa Casa and the public health system, starting from a null interaction in the beginning of the 19th century that turns into a co-dependency with numerous disputes and very tenuous limits in the beginning of the 21st century.
