Résumé:
Verify the factors related to the level of use of users' health rights
with DM and understanding the knowledge and practices on the right to health by users who live
with DM. Methods: study of mixed methods, of the convergent type, with data collection
concomitant. Results: there was a relationship between the score of the level of use of rights to
health of users with diabetes mellitus with monthly family income (p= 0.025) and skin color
self-reported (p= 0.032). Furthermore, categories were constructed to explain the knowledge of the
rights by users with DM. Class 1 pointed out the "difficulty in accessing rights due to lack of
knowledge and adequate information”. Class 2 demonstrated "user exemption in
search for rights”, being corroborated by class 5, pointing to the “recognition of rights
as a complementary aid from the government”.
Class 6 is related to difficulty in accessing rights due to the bureaucratization of
services, being subdivided into classes 3 and 4, which revealed the "search for rights due to
need for the financial issue" and "search for rights by recognizing as a duty of the
State”, respectively. Conclusions: the results confirm that the more vulnerable
economically a population, the more they tend to look for rights as a way to supply what
cannot acquire through purchase. In addition, the disparity related to
ethnic groups and access to health rights, in which self-reported black and brown people
use more of their rights, but are exposed to frequent bureaucratic barriers to their
reach.
