The scope of the article was to characterize the process of regulation of care in Primary Health Care units in the city of Rio de Janeiro, with an emphasis on the outpatient dimension. A cross-sectional study was carried out in 2019, by means of a survey, with the participation of 114 local regulatory physicians. With respect to the profile of local regulators, there is a high percentage with training in Family and Community Medicine and the length of service of these professionals in the units is relatively satisfactory. For 52.6%, the infrastructure for regulation is adequate, but connectivity frequently presents problems. In the regulation system, the mechanisms and schedules for making vacancies available and accessing them elicit competition between the regulators of the units, with work overload and associated access inequities. There was major involvement of local regulators in activities of evaluation and management of waiting times. The majority reported that there was little or no interaction with specialized care. Although the decentralized regulation process still has some shortcomings, the study points to the feasibility and contribution of more intense participation of Primary Care in the regulation of access.
