| Popis: | This study aimed to analyze the correlation between the number of health care teams of the Family Health Strategy (FHS) and the number of hospitalizations due to primary care sensitive conditions (HPCSC) taking into account rates, costs and hospital days in a large municipality of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, between 2010 and 2019. We performed an ecological time series correlation study on HPCSC of patients hospitalized by the public health system. Data were obtained from the Hospital Information System of the IT Department of the Public Health System (DATASUS) and from the Primary Care Information and Management System. The correlation analysis was performed based on the number, gross and standardized rates, percentages, costs and hospital days of HPCSC and health care coverage (average number of teams) using Spearman’s correlation coefficient at a significance level of 5% (p < 0.05). No satisfactory correlation was found in the entire period between the increase in the number of health care teams and HPCSC (except for the standardized hospitalization rate). However, during the period in which the FHS coverage of the population was greater than 70%, all correlations were inversely proportional and statistically significant. |
