Unimed System Sustainability Report
41
As every organization, there are many fac-
tors influencing the economic health of
Unimed cooperatives. We belong to a sector
characterized by strong regulation and whi-
ch faces the challenge of the assistance costs
constant increase. For this reason, Unimed
do Brasil seeks to operate at various fronts of
support to cooperatives, in order to optimi-
ze the economic diagnostic operational ca-
pability, cut costs and improve the services
provided by Unimeds all over the national
territory. In this sense, the beneficiaries’ sa-
tisfaction follow-up becomes fundamental
in the quest to improve our services, at the
same time in which we provide the neces-
sary guidances regarding how to use the
health insurance efficiently, in a win-win re-
lation without any conflicts of interests. This
reinforces our willingness to always cater for
relations transparency, without losing sight
of the ethical and responsible stance in busi-
ness conduction.
Economic-financial performance
Added value statement
Unimeds inform the added value statement (DVA), the purpose of which is to display the ge-
neratedwealth value and its distribution among the elements who contributed for the gene-
ration of this wealth. The DVA is then used tomeasure the Unimed cooperatives efficiency in
the utilization of necessary factors for their operation, such as events, disbursements, opera-
tional expenses and materials purchased from third parties. In 2014, the 231 Unimeds whi-
ch completed the DVA in the Unimed Social Balance, representing 65.81% of the Unimeds
total in December 2014, distributed together R$ 16.8 billion. Among the relationship publics,
those who received the most were: members, with 57.85%; the employees/officers/directors
group, with 20.07%; and the government, with 11.65% of the distributed total. ]
The figures of 2014 show that the need
of the same 231 Unimeds reporting the
indicator “Earnings and revenues” in the
Unimed Social Balance surpassed R$ 50
billion, a 17% increase in comparison with
2013. Even with a difficult market scena-
rio for health insurances, these figures
reflect the customers portfolio increase,
a result of higher population access to
health insurances. ]
