Abstract
The objective of this study is to present patient satisfaction results using the Net Promoter Score (NPS). This is a cross-sectional study carried out with microdata from the Continuous National Household Sample Survey of 2022 and which corresponds to the module on Primary Health Care in which the sample carried out was 48,068 guardians of children under 13 years of age in all federation units. The main variables considered were the score given to the health service in the last service in the 12-month period and the main reason for this score. It should be noted that no region of the country achieved a result defined as a Quality Zone (between 51 and 75), concentrating on a category called Improvement Zone (between 1 and 50). The best performance was in the South region (+33) and the worst performances in the Northeast and Southeast regions (+27). The NPS can be an important ally to quickly assess the patient experience in primary health care services in Brazil.
