Regular updating allows users who do not attend health centers, without a dedicated family health team, to create job postings for others who are suspended.
The update made it possible for users who do not attend primary health care – who have not interacted with health centers for more than five years and have not been assigned a family physician – to assign a family health team (doctor and nurse) to ten thousand people. The calculations are made by the Central Administration of the Health System (ACSS). The organization points out that registrations in the Register of National Users (RNU) are updated regularly for various reasons, whether due to changes in address, births or deaths.
A source from the ACSS specifies, however, that it was the procedure for updating users who do not attend primary health care that allowed the provision of a family doctor for those who regularly visit health centers and wait for a family health team. In practice, by “cleaning” or “removing” groups of citizens from the family doctor’s waiting list, the process allows others to take over vacancies and soon have a family health team. “There is no process for excluding a family physician on the basis of a lack of contact with primary care,” the ACSS promotes.
