Abstract

This article aims to offer an overview of the current situation facing SUS regarding the relationship between the health needs of its users and the health policies developed for this purpose. The qualitative analysis was organised in two stages: i) comparative analysis of social representations of health needs; and ii) analysis of the process of formation of the government agenda. The selection of research subjects, data collection and analysis tools varied according to the research stage. The data revealed the existence of a social fabric composed of a complex plot that alternates between knots and conceptual and structural voids, which is sewn by various actors and that has served multiple purposes. It also indicated that the health needs of people and their daily struggles in search of their satisfaction still remain in the fringes of this fabric.
