Abstract:

In Brazil, consistent advances occurred towards universal coverage after the creation of the
Family Health Program (FHP), the main strategy for expanding first contact access and
changing the care model in Brazil, strengthened from the creation of The Primary Care Floor
(PAB), with resources exclusively for Primary Care, transferred to the municipalities on a
regular and automatic basis.
The registration of the population is one of the fundamentals of work in the Family Health
Strategy (ESF), aiming to know the families enrolled in the teams.
The institution of the Previne Brasil Program in November 2019 established a new funding
model for PHC, with weighted capitation as one of its components, whose remuneration
model is calculated based on the number of people registered.
The aim of this study was to analyze the evolution of the population registered in PHC after
the weighted capitation incentive creation, considering the registration in the municipalities
and their behavior in the different rural-urban municipal typologies and the population size.
The study showed that in 76.1% of the municipalities there was an increase in registrations
in the analyzed period, regardless of the rural-urban typology and population size of the
municipalities.
