本文基于两个不同的数据源：家庭预算调查（POF）和全国抽样家庭调查（PNAD），讨论了巴西家庭健康支出的主要特征。显示了健康费用相对于其他费用组的重要性，并估算了其金额。研究表明，家庭健康支出的主要类别是购买药品和私人医疗保险的月费。巴西最富有的 30% 人的家庭承担了大部分费用。在巴西90%最贫困人口的家庭中，医疗费用的最大部分是用于购买药品。最贫穷的家庭，无论是考虑医药、私人健康保险还是一般费用，医疗费用对其每月预算的影响最大。
The article discusses the main characteristics of the Brazilian families' expenses with health, based on two different data sources: the Survey on Household Budgets (POF) and the National Survey of Sampled Households (PNAD). The importance of the expenses with health in regard to other groups of expenses is shown, as well its amount is estimated. It is demonstrated that the main categories of families' expenses with health are those related to the purchase of medicine and with the monthly fees of private health insurance. The families of the people who are amongst the 30% richest Brazilians are responsible for the majority of these expenses. In the families of the 90% poorest Brazilians, the greatest part of health expenses are due to medicine purchased. The poorest the families are, highest is the impact of the health expenses in their monthly budget, either if considering expenses with medicine, with private health insurance, or general.
