Abstract

This article seeks to identify governmental actions within the scope of health systems and services that aim to adopt public policies related to digital preservation in health. Public information and archive policies are transversal to public health policies and directly contribute to guaranteeing the rights of citizens advocated by the Unifid Health System (SUS). In this sense, digital preservation policies are essential to guarantee access to information for future generations. The research is characterized as applied and exploratory. It uses as a sample the complete texts of the Consolidation of Infralegal Norms of SUS. The results point to the need for actions aimed at digital preservation in health through the adoption of public policies. Finally, it is emphasized that popular participation in the development of these public health information policies is essential for the transparency of governmental actions.
