Through integrative review methodology, clinical literature related to technical glosses, occurred in the period from january to september 2014, were collected and analyzed from the perspective of the conceptual model presented by Cochrane (LEFEBVRE et al., 2011), which identifies the level of scientific evidence and establishes the degree of recommendation for clinical practice. During the content analysis, considering the techniques proposed by Bardin (1977), the scientific evidences, that gives value to the health care practices, were identified, as proposed by the conceptual model. In addition, the cost of the glosses were included in the analysis of the results, reinforcing the trend of the study to validate the conceptual model that recommends evidence-based medical practice to generate more effective results and better cost / benefit in health. Based on the findings, the theoretical and practical implications are discussed, as well as suggestions for future studies on the subject. / Este estudo foi desenvolvido em um hospital privado, no Rio de Janeiro, com o intuito de demonstrar o valor de uma biblioteca médica digital, como ferramenta de suporte para fundamentação científica das condutas assistenciais adotadas pela equipe médica, que resultaram em glosas técnicas e perda de faturamento para a instituição. Para isso, por meio do método revisão integrativa, foi coletada a literatura clínica referente às glosas, ocorridas durante o período de janeiro a setembro de 2014, e analisada sob a perspectiva do modelo conceitual apresentado pela Cochrane (LEFEBVRE et al., 2011) que identifica o nível da evidência científica e estabelece o seu grau de recomendação para a prática clínica. Durante a análise de conteúdo, considerando as técnicas propostas por Bardin (1977), foram identificadas as evidências científicas que conferem valor à prática assistencial, conforme proposto pelo modelo conceitual. Além disso, o valor dos itens glosados foi incluído na análise dos resultados, reforçando a tendência do estudo para a validação do modelo conceitual que recomenda a prática clínica baseada em evidências científicas para geração de resultados mais efetivos e de melhor custo/benefício na saúde. Com base nos achados, são discutidas as implicações teóricas e práticas, assim como sugestões para futuros estudos sobre o tema.
