“…Sendo assim, diante dos dados que evidenciam que dos idosos de Belo Horizonte recenseadas, os que se encontram fragilizados representam uma pequena parcela da população com 60 anos ou mais, devem ser propostos ações com esse foco. É necessário serem desenvolvidas políticas amplas e intersetoriais que procurem assegurar o envelhecimento ativo (14) .…”

We carried out a narrative review of the scientific production in the area of Policy, Planning and Management in Revista de Saúde Pública (RSP), between 1967 and 2015. All the fascicles of RSP, in the period, were accessed via SciELO platform, which provides all articles online. We selected and classified the articles according to the main topics of scientific production in the area of Policy, Planning and Management. Revista de Saúde Pública has published 343 articles on this subject, with significant growth in the last two decades. The most discussed topics were Health Economics, Primary Health-care, Access and Use of Health Services, and Evaluation of Services and Programs. In the last decade, the topics of Policy and Access to Medicines and Public-Private Relationship, including judicialization, gained importance. The pages of RSP embraced the vast and diverse production of Policy, Planning and Management in its first 50 years, contributing to the consolidation of the area in Brazil.

“…Quando se observa a idade, porém, o grupo corrobora com a literatura, a qual demonstra que a população vinculada ao setor de saúde suplementar brasileiro se mostra mais envelhecida do que a população brasileira como um todo, as maiores coberturas destes convênios concentrando-se nas faixas etárias acima de 70 anos [13][14] . Para a distribuição segundo o estado civil e ocupação, este grupo de idosos apresenta características concordante com as que são descritas por outros pesquisadores, com predomínio de casados ou em união estável e aposentados, respectivamente 12,15 .…”

AIM: This study aims to assess the life quality of a group of elderly people linked to a health plan in the city of São Paulo and to verify which variables affect this construct. METHODS: This is an exploratory cross-sectional study carried out in 2017 with a group of elderly people over 60 years of age and without cognitive deficits, linked to a health plan operator, all residents of the city of São Paulo, SP. The WHOQOL-BREF and WHOQOL-Old self-filled questionnaires were applied and the elderly participants also answered questionnaires relating to sociodemographic, morbidities and the usage of services developed by the researchers. RESULTS: The research group evaluates their quality of life as good and is satisfied with their health, but some points stand out. For said group, living by themselves, having cardiocirculatory diseases or having more than one chronic disease influenced negatively their quality of life, whereas being in a stable unionship and having access to consultations with intervals below six months interfered positively. It was observed that the group was concerned about issues related to independence, communication capacity, social life, and death. The environment and intimacy were shown as highlights for this group. CONCLUSIONS: It was verified in this group of elderly people that the best quality of life performance was obtained in the Environment and Social Relations domains and in the Intimacy and Past, Present and Future aspects. In addition, sociodemographic, morbidity and health service use variables significantly affected this construct. The characteristics of the research group do not allow us to generalize the findings, but it is hoped to have contributed with the look on a group as diverse as the Brazilian elderly.
