The article analyzes the role played by hospital services in the dynamic of health care innovation, considering that these are the driving force of the innovation process within the Economic-Industrial Health Care Complex. In addition, the services' potential for articulating virtuously the economic and social dimensions of development is emphasized in the article. By using the framework of the political economy of health, contributions are proposed to the development of an analytical basis and of new models for strategic analysis of institutional, technological and hospital management conditions, as well as of their interconnections within the health care productive complex. Thus, the article aims to deepen the understanding about innovation dynamics as seen from these organizations.
