Abstract:

This study verified the influence of the Primary Health Care (PHC) in the use of health services for children below 5 years of age interviewed in National Health Survey (NHS) in Brazil. For this we used the Propensity Score method (PE) to correct the lack of comparability between the children study groups. The PE was estimated by logistic regression and reflects the conditional probability of receiving the registration in the PHC given a set of covariates that depict socioeconomic, demographic, health and health of children and families who make up. Were estimated prevalence of medical visits and hospitalizations and incorporate the effects of the complex sample of SNP analysis on all phases. It was found that children living in households with PHC coverage have low socioeconomic, sanitary and health conditions, but they had estimates of medical consultations and hospitalizations near the children without this assistance link. The data suggest that PHC can correct individual and contextual inequalities that impact the health of Brazilians to the favor the use of health services for children even when have the worst living conditions and health.
