The disposal of hospital waste generates costs for health services, as it is subject to strict rules due to the potential contaminant and risks to health and the environment. In this sense, this research aims to identify the costs of waste management of health services generated in a public hospital. Methodologically, the study is characterized as bibliographic and documentary, with a qualitative approach, an intentional non-probabilistic sample and defined by convenience. The data collected refer to the year 2019. The results point to the relevance of care with the correct handling of waste from health services not only under the environmental aspects due to its high contaminating factor, but also under the aegis of the costs that need to be borne by the organization.
