This documentary study evaluated the detection of people with hypertension and/or diabetes by Basic Health Units (UBS), identified in a populational based study. Among the included 606 individuals, 386 (63.7%) of them had a record of hypertension and/or diabetes on Record A, in Sishiperdia or in the charts of UBS. The detection frequency was significantly higher among people with a worse economic stratum, who did not have an occupation and used the UBS. The results show regular coverage, predominantly those who use the services and point to the need of strategies to enhance the recognition of the target population of the program activity.
