abstract: 'ObjectiveIn this study, we assess the delivery of congenital pediatric

  surgical care under Brazil''s system of universal health coverage and

  evaluate differences in delivery between public and private sectors.

  MethodsA cross-sectional national survey of pediatric surgeons in Brazil

  was conducted. Participants were asked which of 23 interventions

  identified through the Disease Control Priorities 3 (Surgical

  Interventions for Congenital Anomalies) they perform and to report

  barriers faced while providing surgical care. Responses were weighted by

  state and stratified by sector (public vs private). ResultsA sample of

  352 responses was obtained and weighted to represent 1378 practicing

  pediatric surgeons registered in Brazil during the survey time. 73\%

  spend the majority of their time working in the public sector (''Sistema

  unico de Saude'' and Foundation hospitals), and most of them also work in

  the private sector. Generally, Brazilian pediatric surgeons have the

  expertise to provide thoracic, abdominal, and urologic procedures.

  Surgeons working mostly in the public sector were more likely to report

  a lack of access to essential medications (25\% vs 9\%, p<0.01) and a

  lack of access to hospital beds for surgical patients (52\% vs 32\%,

  p<0.01). ConclusionsBrazilian pediatric surgeons routinely perform

  thoracic, abdominal, and urologic surgery. Those working in

  government-financed hospitals face barriers related to infrastructure,

  which may impact Brazilians who rely on Brazil''s universal health

  coverage system. Policies that support pediatric surgeons working in the

  public sector may promote the workforce available to provide congenital

  pediatric surgical care.'
