1988 Constitution
Since 1988, Brazil has been developing a dynamic, complex health system based on the principles of health as a citizen’s right and state’s duty.
It strives to provide comprehensive, universal, preventive and curative care through decentralized management and provision of health services and promotion of community participation at all levels

Brazilian health system: complex network of complementary and competitive service providers and purchasers, forming a public–private mix
Three subsectors: 1.Public subsector (SUS): services financed and provided by the state at the federal, state, and municipal levels2.Private (for-profit and non-profit) subsector: services financed in various ways with public or private funds3.Private health insurance subsector: different forms of health plans, varying insurance premiums and tax subsidiesPublic and private components distinct but interconnected

The National Immunisation Programme set up in 1973 stands out as one of Brazil’s most successful public health programmes, as reflected in its high vaccination coverage and sustainability, the latter guaranteed in part by the National Self-Sufficiency Programme in Immunobiologicals
There have been no cases of poliomyelitis in Brazil since 1989, nor measles since 2000
![Page 19: Brazilian health system Paulo M. Buss, MD, MPH Director, FIOCRUZ Center for Global Health Full Member, National Academy of Medicine Cape Town, PHA3, July](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ceb5503460f949b65d8/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Immunization• Between 1980 and 2007 the number of deaths due
to tetanus falls 81% and for coqueluche 95%• In2007, no deaths due to diphtheria, poliomyelitis or
measles • The incidence and lethality due to meningitis caused
by HiB in children under 5 reduced dramatically after the introduction of HiB vaccine into de Brazilian vaccination program in 1999

Social participation
SUS built during the re-democratization process and was its central political and ideological component(Health is democracy and democracy is health)Nest of SUS: VIII National Conference of Health (around 5,000 participants from all levels; social movements – academic sector – politicians – managers – private sector)National, ‘provincial’ and municipal (local) Councils of HealthFragmentation of the social movement: ‘Social’ councils vs. ‘health’ or other sectorial councils? No connections (competition) among councils

Final remarks• The main strategy for improving healthcare should be
through the strengthening of health system and services provided in an integrated manner
• Healthcare systems should be strongly anchored on a sound primary care strategy
• Healthcare networks, with well-defined lines of care and appropriate disease management protocols are essential to good healthcare delivery
• Disease specific programmes can only succeed when supported by healthy healthcare systems
• Targeted programmes should be directed to specific populations rather than to specific diseases
• For good health outcomes it is crucial articulate health to other social policies
