Connect SUS is the official app of the Ministry of Health (MS). With it, the citizen can see the interactions carried out at the health care points. He can also follow his own history in the SUS. That is, your exams, your vaccines, your medications offered and even the location of health posts.

In summary, the App is a personal and non-transferable program for the person using the Unified Health System. But not only that. Through it it is possible to access the benefits in the most efficient way possible. Decreasing, for example, the time that the user wasted looking for where and how he could be (well) served.

The fact is that Connect SUS brings safe information so that citizens know their rights. Mainly, of course, when seeking health care. There is an official document, created by MS, which brings together the six basic principles of citizenship. They assure Brazilians of their dignified entry into health systems.

The Charter of the Rights of Health Users

The Charter of the Rights of Health Users is an important piece for citizens to know about their rights. In its content, it aims to guarantee equal attention to Brazilians. That is, universal access to its services. As well as actions for the recovery, protection and promotion of your health.

The National Health Council (CNS) approved it at its 198th Ordinary Meeting. This meeting took place on June 17, 2009. Its main objective is to help Brazil to have a much better quality health system. Not only the public network, but also the private one.

The preparation of the document agreed on 6 (six) basic principles. Furthermore, together they ensure the basic right to a dignified entry into national health systems. Because of this, the app has been one of the most sought after free apps, which is linked to the health of Brazilians.

Who is entitled to Connect SUS

Given the above, it is clear that every citizen born in Brazil is entitled to SUS. Consequently, they are entitled to use Connect SUS. Remember, right away, that it is your digital gateway to health information. This for the citizen to view their clinical history.

O Conecte SUS, na verdade, não é só um app. Em primeiro lugar, ele é um programa do governo que visa materializar a Estratégia de Saúde Digital. Ou seja, um fluxo que aumenta a troca de informações de saúde entre todos os pontos da rede. Isso permite a sua continuidade e/ou transição da atenção.

He also, today, presents the applied vaccines, laboratory tests of COVID-19, hospitalizations and dispensed medications. In addition, he can access both his Digital Vaccination Card and his National Covid-19 Vaccination Certificate. This, among the other benefits offered through the SUS.

Connect SUS and the Pandemic

There is an atmosphere of danger to the population caused by the pandemic. This demanded vehement responses from the health system as a whole. However, in particular, the responses from the SUS. This is to coordinate national actions and to orchestrate the efforts of states, municipalities and also Supplementary Health.

In view of this, the App Connect SUS has been redirected to receive and share information that helps control the public health emergency situation. This was based on the implantation of the National Health Data Network (RNDS). But it is worth highlighting the Covid-19 vaccination process in Brazil.

Your National Digital Vaccination Card is available in the App. A tool that firstly allows users and health professionals to monitor immunization. The person who uses it, as soon as they receive their vaccine, will have their dose registered in the app.

How to register for the program

O seu registro no Conecte SUS Cidadão é muito simples. Ele pode ser feito com o número do seu CPF ou a sua própria Carteira Nacional de Saúde. O cadastro pode ser feito direito no App no celular. Basta baixar o app direto na loja de apps do seu sistema, seja na Google Pley ou seja Apple Store e seguir com o cadastro.

Se ainda tiver alguma dúvida, basta acessar o site oficial em que consta todas as informações entre o cidadão e o SUS. Isso porque o nosso desejo é que você se sinta seguro para fazer as suas solicitações sem passar, nem por “maus bocados”, e nem pela famosa “cara na porta”, na busca de seu direito.

Do everything right and preventively. If this article was helpful to you, consider sharing it with a friend, family member or neighbor. It is good that as many people as possible know their rights so that the country can have a healthier population over time.
