Public healthcare (SUS)

Medication, surgery or treatment denied by SUS (Brazil's public health system)?

The Brazilian Federal Constitution guarantees the right to health and establishes responsibilities for public authorities. Even so, patients may face difficulties in accessing medications, surgeries, hospital admissions, exams and other necessary treatments.

Moreira e Bastos Advogados works on matters related to access to public healthcare, assessing the medical records, the urgency of the case and the legal requirements applicable to claims against public authorities.
