Its purpose was to make information available and disseminate information that values the municipal SUS. The promotion of an information board reveals that the cities have adjusted to SUS principles. The results also indicate that the need to have information as a management tool is increasingly involving those responsible for health policies. Information gathered and conveyed in the topic.
