Conecta SUS Citizen is the official application of the Ministry of Health, where Brazilian citizens can view the interactions carried out at health care points and monitor their history in the Unified Health System (SUS), such as exams, vaccines, dispensing medication and location of health facilities.

Therefore, the Connect SUS, from the implementation of the National Health Data Network (RNDS), was redirected to receive and share information that helps in the control of public health emergencies, with emphasis on the Covid-19 vaccination process. in Brazil.

¹ The records are the responsibility of state and municipal health managers, who collect and send the information to the Ministry of Health database. They are made by the teams responsible for the vaccination center or the health unit where the dose has been applied. The data are entered in the RNDS' own information systems, in the Information System of the National Immunization Program (SI-PNI) or e-SUS Primary Health Care System (s-SUS APS). After the data has been sent and processed, it is automatically inserted into Conecta SUS, which is available via cell phone or in the web version.
