The results reveal that from the initial doctrines that sought to explain the organization structure and functioning of the Public Administration, in order to determine if the administrative form of Autonomous Service in the University Hospital is the most appropriate taking into consideration the wide range of bodies and entities established by the Decree with Rank, Value and Force of Organic Law of the Public Administration (Desconcentrated Services, State Foundations, Autonomous Institute, Public Institute), the one most in line with the nature of its functions, which is none other than provide health services. In this sense, it is concluded that the administrative figure of Autonomous Service is not the most in line with the reality of the powers of the University Hospital of Maracaibo, this because said figure was currently suppressed and renamed Desconcentrated Services, but even so, having taking into account that the services provided by the University Hospital of Maracaibo are free, and one of the characteristics of desconcentrated services is the collection of resources, it would not apply to change its name either, recommending that it be given legal personality and given and administrative form of Autonomous Institute or Public Institute, this figure is fully adapted to the provisions of current administrative legislation.
