SUMMARY:

With the advance of the judicialization of health in Brazil, in the 2000s, the National Council of Justice (CNJ) began to prepare studies and propose concrete measures with the objective of better understanding this phenomenon, as well as rationalizing the judicial demands involving assistance to health in the country. In this context, the CNJ then determined the creation of the Judiciary Technical Support Centers (NATJUS), by state and federal courts, with a view to producing technical opinions to support judicial decisions in the health area. In Rio Grande do Norte, under the aegis of CNJ Recommendation nº 31, of March 30, 2010, a Technical Chamber was created in 2014 by the State Committee on Health Demands, which later became known as NATJUS. This study aims to analyze the influence of opinions on medicines, prepared by NATJUS of Rio Grande do Norte, on the outcomes of lawsuits filed against public entities, as well as, and especially, the acceptability of these opinions by magistrates. The period of analysis is the triennium 2017-2019, period after the publication of CNJ Resolution No. 238, of September 6, 2016, which determined the formation of these nuclei. This is an exploratory, retrospective and descriptive study, with a quantitative-qualitative approach, in which an analysis was carried out of 212 opinions requested by magistrates from NATJUS, made available in the JUDSAÚDE system, as well as the judicial processes in the context of which they were requested. . Thus, in addition to the description and general characterization of all opinions requested from NATJUS and made available in the referred system, it was observed that there was a higher percentage of requests for opinions by the federal judiciary (81.6%), as well as a high percentage of court decisions that considered these opinions (81.6%). There was a greater number of favorable opinions to the author's request (65.1%), as well as that, for the most part, the opinions were of medicines not available within the scope of the Unified Health System (SUS) (81.0% ), notably antineoplastic and immunomodulatory drugs (38.3%), according to the ATC classification. It was also observed that the percentage of cases in which opinions were requested from the NATJUS, in the period considered, was very low (9.6%), as well as that the impact of the performance of the NATJUS, in the sense of reducing the number of convictions against of the State of Rio Grande do Norte, in the medication processes, was very low (2.1%). It is expected, therefore, that with the implementation of the e-natjus system, by the CNJ, there will be a greater adherence of the Norte-riograndense judiciary to the use of this important tool, since the judicial decision in health needs a technical basis. Finally, in addition to health issues, the judge, in order to decide fairly, considering the entire social and economic context of public health policy, should not do without this aid.
