【 摘 要 】

By 2017, the Mais Médicos Program plans to open 11,400 places in medical schools and 12,400 residency places. Brazil already has about 400,000 doctors in service, which makes up a ratio of 2.11 doctors per thousand inhabitants. Thus, the country clearly surpasses the standpoint of the World Health Organization, which recommends one professional per thousand inhabitants. The numbers jump out and depict a scenario of prosperity and success in medicine and health care, but it's not quite like this. There is a significant concentration of generalists and specialists in the Southeast Region and a lack of them in the North. The Southeast concentrate more specialists than the sum of the doctors of the Northeast, Center‐West and North. In this paper, we present these figures and analyze their impact on the number of graduates that are getting ready to enter the job market.
