Abstract
This article is the result of a research that aimed to analyze how the health care of cancer patients occurs in the sphere of Primary Care, in municipalities in the Far West Region of Santa Catarina. This is a qualitative study, where the interview technique was used, with the participation of 33 health professionals with higher education, who make up multidisciplinary teams from 25 municipalities with a population of less than five thousand inhabitants. Through the results obtained, there was an understanding in relation to the dynamics, flows and protocols for diagnosis and treatment in the multidisciplinary care of cancer patients. It was evidenced that, despite the existing health equipment and the realization of training, there are difficulties in the reference and in the counter-reference, highlighting fragmentations in the continuity of care.
