Abstract
ABSTRACT The LGBTQIA+ population still faces many difficulties in accessing health services and obtaining effective care and assistance. This article provides an analysis of the academic literature on the LGBTQIA+ population’s access to Primary Health Care (PHC) services in Brazil. To this end, a scoping review was conducted in order to identify studies on subjects where literature reviews are still scarce and where different study designs may be possible. As for the results, it was observed that scientific production on access to PHC for the LGBTQIA+ population is still incipient. It emerged that, despite the political gains made through the struggle of social movements, the health process for this population is still permeated by a heteronormative logic that disregards identities and gender orientations and, consequently, imposes major barriers to accessing healthcare services.
