Summary

Introduction

Planning is a tool of excellence and powerful for qualification of the Unified Health System (SUS). The existing decentralization in SUS provided more precise diagnoses of the local reality and the identification of the health determinants involved, offering the possibility of adequate management aimed at the needs of the population. This gives municipalities more power and responsibility, which makes planning essential and situational, as opposed to the centralized and normative planning of public management until 1990. Planning has enormous potential to enable the achievement of timely resolubility of the established and implemented measures This is one of the main potentialities that give planning the strategic character for management qualification [1] (p.9)
