| Abstract | This study aims to measure equity in primary health care of women through the evaluation of four using services markers: mammography, Pap cervical cancer, clinical examination and palpation of breast and health self-stated. The markers are evaluated according to family income and geographic location. For the analysis we used secondary data from the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD) of 2008. That study supported the analysis of equity by graphical method by constructing concentration curves for Brazil and for the North, Northeast, Midwest, Southeast and South regions. The results highlight that in general the performance of the chosen markers showed a pattern of inequity by income, and by geographic distribution. However, for the North and Northeast regions, some markers exhibited a pattern of equitable distribution or favoring the lower-income population. Despite advances to seek improvements in the provision of health services dedicated to women, there is still a necessity to improve access to basic preventive services. |
