This article aims to analyze the importance of the Third Sector in the health sector in Goiânia, considering its contributions to service provision, the challenges, and its prospects. The research is based on a narrative, bibliographic, and documentary review of primary sources, in addition to the analysis of secondary data on the performance of social organizations in the health management units in the capital of Goiás. The results indicate that the Third Sector has played a significant role in the health services provision, especially in the context of scarcity of public resources, contributing to the efficiency improvement and quality of care. Challenges persist in transparency, accountability, and financial sustainability in the Third Sector. It is concluded that the performance of the Third Sector is essential for the strengthening of the health system in Goiânia, as effective control and evaluation mechanisms accompany it.
