Abstract:

We expected that the More Physician Program (Programa Mais Médicos - PMM in Portuguese) might have provoked several changes and reflections in each municipality in which it is carried out. In order to observe those changes, we aimed at analyzing the Cuban physicians experience in PMM from an actor-centered perspective, based on the Paideia’s Method – an approach that seeks to enhance the ability of the subjects to analyze and intervene in their practice. We performed semi-structured interviews to analyze our research object that consisted in the experience of those actors REPLACEed professionally on PMM. The work-field was a metropolis with unique characteristics. In order to assess the interviews we used the Content Analysis with the Thematic Analysis analytical approach. From the discourse of the actors, of which illustrative excerpts are transcribed in this article, we can affirm that the program‘s potential surpassed any initial barrier, presenting itself as a stress tool to overcoming the biomedical model towards Paideia’s Method.
