Efficiency in the quality of the service of health promotion entities of the colombian subsidized regime

Objetivo: Evaluar la eficiencia en la calidad del servicio de las Entidades Promotoras de Salud del régimen subsidiado durante los períodos comprendidos entre 2011-1 y 2014-1. Materiales y Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo retrospectivo de la calidad del servicio en las entidades promotoras de salud del régimen subsidiado soportado en la metodología del análisis envolvente de datos (DEA), utilizando el modelo propuesto por Charnes, Cooper y Rhodes orientado a las salidas. Se realiza una selección de un conjunto de variables a partir de la base de datos de la Superintendencia Nacional de Salud. Resultados: Los resultados indican que 14 de las 22 entidades evaluadas tienen una eficiencia superior al 90% durante el periodo de estudio. Conclusiones: El análisis envolvente de datos permitió identificar las entidades promotoras de salud (EPS) del régimen subsidiado que obtuvieron un buen desempeño en el período de estudio así mismo la eficiencia promedio no superó el 70%, lo que muestra que en la actualidad Colombia está pasando por una crisis en el sector de la salud.Objective: To evaluate the efficiency in the quality of Health Promotion Entities service of the subsidized regime between 2011-1 and 2014-1. Materials and Methods: A descriptive retrospective study of the quality in the subsidized regime health promotion entities service was performed supported by the data envelopment analysis (DEA) methodology using the output-oriented model proposed by Charnes, Cooper and Rhodes. A selection of a set of variables was performed from the database of the National Health Board. Results: The results indicate that 14 of the 22 evaluated entities showed efficiency greater than 90% during the study period. Conclusions: The envelopment analysis of data allowed identifying the subsidized regime Health Promotion Entities (EPS) that obtained a good performance in the period of study, as well as the average efficiency that did not exceed 70%, which shows that Colombia is currently undergoing a crisis in the health sector

NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES: a data set on carnivore distribution in the Neotropics

Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae. Herein, we include published and unpublished data on native terrestrial Neotropical carnivores (Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae). NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES is a publicly available data set that includes 99,605 data entries from 35,511 unique georeferenced coordinates. Detection/non-detection and quantitative data were obtained from 1818 to 2018 by researchers, governmental agencies, non-governmental organizations, and private consultants. Data were collected using several methods including camera trapping, museum collections, roadkill, line transect, and opportunistic records. Literature (peer-reviewed and grey literature) from Portuguese, Spanish and English were incorporated in this compilation. Most of the data set consists of detection data entries (n = 79,343; 79.7%) but also includes non-detection data (n = 20,262; 20.3%). Of those, 43.3% also include count data (n = 43,151). The information available in NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES will contribute to macroecological, ecological, and conservation questions in multiple spatio-temporal perspectives. As carnivores play key roles in trophic interactions, a better understanding of their distribution and habitat requirements are essential to establish conservation management plans and safeguard the future ecological health of Neotropical ecosystems. Our data paper, combined with other large-scale data sets, has great potential to clarify species distribution and related ecological processes within the Neotropics. There are no copyright restrictions and no restriction for using data from this data paper, as long as the data paper is cited as the source of the information used. We also request that users inform us of how they intend to use the data
