OBJECTIVE: this study aims to evaluate the implantation degree of the Epidemiology Hospitals Nucleus (EHN) in the Network Reference Hospitals in Pernambuco, analyzing the adequacy of the classification at levels I, II, and III. METHODOLOGY: a normative components Structure and Process assessment was performed; based on a trial matrix, an implementation degree was established - satisfactory, acceptable, unsatisfactory and critical -; to evaluate the classification of hospitals, their structures were compared with the Ordinance n^o 2.529/04 criteria. RESULTS: the implantation degree was satisfactory in three nucleuses, acceptable in one, unsatisfactory in two, and critical in one; considering the levels I, II, and III, only two nucleuses were classified correctly. CONCLUSION: despite the advances, the study shows still difficulties in the collection, analysis and dissemination of information; it is necessary to reassess the hospital's classificationfor the resources distribution, and invest in strategies for greater integration between the EHN.
