Resumen

Este artículo presenta una revisión sistemática de la literatura sobre la aplicación del Análisis Envolvente de Datos (DEA) para la evaluación de la eficiencia en el sector de salud pública, cubriendo publicaciones de 2015 a 2025 indexadas en la base Scopus. A partir de 37 artículos seleccionados, se identificaron cinco focos principales de aplicación: (1) evaluación de sistemas de salud nacionales y regionales; (2) eficiencia de hospitales y unidades específicas; (3) factores determinantes de la eficiencia; (4) acceso a tratamientos y desigualdades geográficas; y (5) impacto de la pandemia de COVID-19. Entre los modelos DEA más utilizados, predominan los modelos CCR y BCC para análisis estáticos, el Índice de Malmquist para evaluaciones dinámicas y el DEA en dos etapas con regresión Tobit para el control de factores exógenos. Las variables de entrada (inputs) incluyen recursos humanos, infraestructura y gastos; los productos (outputs) varían entre métricas operacionales en el nivel micro e indicadores de salud poblacional en el nivel macro. Las tendencias apuntan hacia la integración de DEA con análisis espacial y la necesidad de modelos jerárquicos y escalables.
