Abstract:

Since 2009, the Municipal Health Department of Rio de Janeiro (SMS-RJ) has encouraged the creation of a master\'s degree in primary health care at the National Health School / Fiocruz. In the following decade, this proposal became one of the main lines of the institution\'s professional strictu sensu postgraduate program, culminating in the approval by CAPES of the first professional doctorate class in the history of Fiocruz-RJ, offered in 2024. The class is made up of primary health care (PHC) studentsRio\'s SUS and Fiocruz employees in the area of science, technology and innovation. With regard to the profile of the PHC students, the highlights were women (61.5%), a degree in medicine (53.8%), an average of 15 years since graduating, 10 years working in PHC, graduates of a medical or multiprofessional residency course (69.2%) and a master\'s degree in primary careENSP/Fiocruz or UFRJ (84.6%). The SMS-RJ thus leaves a legacy for Brazilian Public Health as a protagonist in the promotion of Fiocruz-RJ\'s strictu sensu professional training programs, innovating in the end-of-course work, rescuing the presence of doctors in the classes and bringing the contributions of the Portuguese SNS, a source of inspiration for the PHC reform undertaken in Rio de Janeiro, to the Rio de Janeiro SUS debate.
