Segundo dados divulgados pela Demografia Médica, a quantidade de médicos no estado do Rio de Janeiro aumentou em 22% desde 2011. O estudo nacional, realizado com informações fornecidas pelo CREMERJ e demais CRMs, foi divulgado pelo Conselho Federal de Medicina (CFM) nesta semana.

De acordo com o levantamento, há 13 anos, o território fluminense contava com 57.175 médicos, enquanto atualmente o número chega a 69.745, resultando em uma proporção de aproximadamente 4,34 médicos por mil habitantes.

As mulheres representam a maioria entre os profissionais da medicina, totalizando 37.352 médicas contra 32.393 médicos. A média de idade dos médicos é de 50,28 anos, com uma média de tempo de formado de 25,01 anos. Em relação à distribuição, 63% dos médicos atuam na capital e 37% no interior, conforme os 92 municípios do estado.

Para o presidente do CREMERJ, Walter Palis, o aumento no número de médicos é significativo, porém são necessárias políticas públicas para melhorar o acesso à saúde e as condições de trabalho. “Hoje, o que precisamos não é de mais médicos, mas sim de mais infraestrutura nas unidades de saúde e carreiras públicas capazes de atrair os profissionais para as localidades distantes dos grandes centros”, destaca Palis.

Ele também ressalta a importância de manter critérios mínimos para a abertura de novas escolas médicas, visando manter a qualidade do ensino e garantir a segurança dos pacientes.

A Demografia Médica 2024, divulgada pelo CFM, revela que o Brasil conta atualmente com 575.930 médicos ativos. Desde a década de 1990, o número de médicos no país mais que quadruplicou, passando de 131.278 para o atual registro, alcançado em janeiro de 2024.

Este crescimento representa um aumento absoluto de 444.652 médicos, equivalente a 339% em termos percentuais. Comparando os dados de crescimento da população em geral (IBGE – 2023) com a população médica (CFM – 2024), observa-se que o total de médicos aumentou oito vezes mais do que a população brasileira durante o mesmo período.
