0025/2018 - Características da distribuição de profissionais do programa mais médicos nos estados do nordeste. Characteristics of more medical program professional distribution in the northeast.
As desigualdades no acesso aos serviços de saúde influenciadas pela carência e má distribuição geográfica de profissionais de saúde têm sido apontadas como um desafio para o país. Este artigo analisa a distribuição geográfica dos profissionais do Programa Mais Médicos alocados na Região Nordeste por meio de estudo transversal descritivo. Foram utilizados dados secundários cedidos pelo Ministério da Saúde e elaborados mapas temáticos de distribuição dos médicos na Região. Foram analisados dados de 4.716 médicos que passaram a integrar equipes de saúde em 1.294 municípios e seis Distritos Sanitários Indígenas entre os anos de 2013 e 2014. A maior parte dos municípios da Região recebeu entre um e cinco médicos. Os municípios mais beneficiados possuíam, pelo menos, 20% da população em situação de extrema pobreza. Os profissionais foram alocados em Centro de Saúde/Unidade Básica (99,9%). A maioria eram mulheres (57%) e a faixa etária média predominante foi de 45 a 49 anos (24%). Apesar dos avanços proporcionados pelo Programa, como a distribuição dos médicos para localidades com maior vulnerabilidade, alguns Estados permanecem com importantes vazios assistenciais.
