The subjects consisted of twenty-four managers of eight Emergency Units in Belo Horizonte-Brazil. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews from February to May 2011. The results indicate that the Emergency Units are perceived as the healthcare system observatory.

Among the possibilities of articulation we may highlight the on-going agreements and the acknowledgment of complementarity and interdependence among different services.
