The terms knowledge, technology and innovation are increasingly part of the business vocabulary, recognizing as pillars for the success of any organization in the twentyfirst century. Especially in the provision of social services such as public health, innovation management must be a priority for the quality and effectiveness of the pressing health problems that affect humanity. The objective of this article is to analyze the development of innovation management in public health services. The bibliographic analysis included material from the last six years in four regional databases on the management of innovation in public health services. Research has been a constant concern in the public health services, which requires the continuous management of innovation in its entities, with emphasis on the aspects that literature considers more relevant, such as human talent, strategy and organizational culture, the relationship with clients and collaborating entities, especially educational ones. Innovation management is a priority for health institutions, in accordance with public policies that promote a continuous solution to population health problems.
