Abstract

Resumen: Este artículo mide la eficiencia del gasto en salud en sesenta y dos países de América Latina y el Caribe (ALC) y de la Organización para la Cooperación y el Desarrollo Económico (OCDE), a partir de la relación entre el nivel de gasto total (como porcentaje del PIB) y algunos resultados en salud (esperanza de vida en anos y mortalidad en menores de cinco anos por cada mil nacidos vivos). Con este fin, se aplicó el método no paramétrico de análisis envolvente de datos, usando para cada grupo datos de 1995, 2005 y 2014. Los resultados permiten identificar la eficiencia y la posición relativa del conjunto de países dentro de ambos grupos. Para el ano 2014, los países más eficientes de ALC fueron Chile, Cuba, República Dominicana, Venezuela y Jamaica, y de la OCDE fueron Japón, Luxemburgo y Turquía. El promedio de la eficiencia de los países de ALC fue inferior a la de los países la OCDE (0,938 y 0,974, respectivamente).
