Abstract

The research project focuses on the problem of the presence / absence of subjects that approach the subject of Health Communication in the curriculums of Medicine courses of the Public Universities of São Paulo. Important for the good relationship between the health professional and the patient, as well as an indispensable tool in the humanization of the services recommended by SUS and the basis for the transmission of information of public interest, Health Communication permeates the content of many disciplines as an operational element or just as the hidden curriculum of universities. Thus, the main objective of this study is to identify the communication element in the grades of Medicine courses, analyze the contents proposed and build a menu that could aggregate the necessary elements for the good performance of health professionals in relation to communication with the patients and among health professionals.
