Abstract

The aim of this dissertation was to describe the contributions of physicians Family Health Strategy (FHS) to achieve the ordering principles governing the operation and mode of organization of the health care model. Performance indicators compiled from the duties of doctors FHS were used in order to measure the performance of these professionals in the city of Belo Horizonte. Furthermore, we sought to investigate whether the performance of this medical model of health care is influenced by variables team performance family health, infrastructure Basic Health Unit, vocational training and length of stay in the medical health team family. The results generally indicated that the family doctor will give satisfactory performance in relation to their duties as the ordering principles, which we infer that it contributes to the achievement of the results of Primary Care. The results showed that the variable performance of the healthcare team influences the performance of the physician, which reinforces the importance of this new form of work organization in the health system, since teamwork is one of the pillars of FHS. The other variables investigated did not contribute to explaining the variation in the performance of the family doctor.
