title: [Adherence to the Ongoing Education Program for family doctors in a southeastern Brazilian state].
abstract: Ongoing Health Education is a strategy for transformation of health practices, though the adherence of professionals is one of the challenges facing its implementation. Thus, the objective of this study was to investigate the factors associated with adherence of family doctors to the Ongoing Education Program in a southeastern Brazilian state from the perception of supervisors. It is a cross-sectional and quantitative study with the use of online questionnaires. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test with ongoing correction to determine the association between structure, topics, activities and difficulties of the supervisors working in Ongoing Health Education, difficulties of the physicians in Primary Health Care (PHC) and poor and good adherence to the program. Excellent medical participation was statistically related to the adequacy of physical space (p = 0.001), a multidisciplinary approach (p = 0.035) and epidemiological aspects (p = 0.043). Low adherence was associated with the inadequacy of the physical structure, difficulty understanding the methodology, less time in a supervisory position, multiple workdays, among others. A good adherence to Ongoing Health Education is a possibility for collective reconstruction of the everyday work of physicians in Primary Health Care.
