| Sumario: | Abstract Aim: To describe the location, participation and response to a survey to assess primary health care in members of a University Health Insurance. Materials and methods: Pilot cross-sectional descriptive study. Simple random sample of 500 adults from members’ database. Proportions of location, participation, response and total response were calculated and analyzed according to sex, age, and type of membership and administration. Results: 61.8% of members were found, 84.5% agreed to participate and 64.4% answered the questionnaire, reaching a total response rate of 54.4%. Young people were less likely to be localized (52.2%, P <0.01) and higher total response rate was achieved in people over 65 (68.2%, P <0.05). Conclusions: Finding the members was difficult but there was a good level of study acceptance. The computerized questionnaire showed strong preference but low response. |
