Uma análise da luta das entidades médicas Brasileiras diante do Programa Mais Médicos

Abstract

We sought to analyze the political agenda of the main Brazilian national medical entities and their struggles around the More Doctors Program implemented by the Brazilian Ministry of Health. It is a research of qualitative nature, of exploratory level and of analytical character, based on several sources presenting positions of these entities, from May 2010 to December 2014, and in press publications, from June 2013 to December 2014, systematized according to categories elaborated from the analysis itself. We identified that the Brazilian medical entities performed intense joint action integrating interests directed to the public and private sectors. The apogee took place between June and October of 2013, through mobilizations of resistance to the More Doctors Program. However, we note that divergences around the struggles against this Program have weakened the political links of these entities that had been built in recent years.
