Initiative Aims to Reduce Wait Times and Expand Access to Specialized Care

President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva signed, this Friday (May 30, 2025), a provisional measure that relaunches the specialized care program in the Unified Health System (SUS). Renamed as “Now There Are Specialists”, the program aims to reduce the wait for consultations and specialized procedures, integrating the private network with the public health system.

Partnership with the Private Network to Expand Care

The new measure allows private hospitals and clinics to serve SUS patients, receiving in return the ability to offset debts with the federal government. The provisional measure provides for two contracting modalities: by fixed service rates in SUS and by debt exchange, with a cap of R$2 billion per year for the latter. The initiative prioritizes care in oncology, gynecology, cardiology, orthopedics, ophthalmology, and otorhinolaryngology, which are considered critical due to repressed demand.

History and Reformulation of the Program

The original program, “More Access to Specialists”, launched in 2024, did not achieve the expected results, being one of the reasons for the replacement of then Minister of Health, Nísia Trindade, by Alexandre Padilha in March 2025. With the reformulation, the government hopes to improve the efficiency and coverage of specialized care in SUS.

Investments and Established Goals

In summary, the program provides for the use of equipped trailers. Thus, it will be possible to hold health campaigns and surgeries in underserved areas. Accordingly, the provisional measure creates 319 new permanent positions at the National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa) to strengthen the control and evaluation of the new equipment in the network.

Complementary Strategies to Expand Access

Additionally, there will be grants for newly graduated doctors or those with a specialization title, encouraging their participation in the program. With such initiatives, the government aims to reduce wait times and, consequently, expand the population’s access to quality health care.

Complementary Strategies to Expand Access

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

Secret chamber sealed 4,500 years ago found in the Pyramid of Khufu, and Hawass announces its opening to the world in 2026

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

A public school student single-handedly created a machine capable of treating water for up to 50 people using only solar energy. It was awarded third place at one of the most important science fairs in the world.

China has begun the second phase of energy assistance to Cuba with a 120 MW solar generation plan, and the first result is a photovoltaic park with batteries that regulates voltage, controls frequency, and provides local autonomy to an island suffocated by chronic blackouts.

Germany installed vertical solar panels on a lake in Bavaria, and the result broke conventional logic: instead of producing energy at midday peak, the plant generates more early in the morning and in the evening, exactly when families turn on appliances and factories are in full swing.

Solar-powered plane crashes into the sea after facing bad weather: the Solar Impulse 2 became known for circumnavigating the world using only solar energy.

While the world cannot produce enough clean fuel for airplanes, researchers are targeting urban waste, sewage, and landfill gas to manufacture aviation kerosene and transform waste into flight.
