Digital fibromyalgia card implementation in Brazil

Overview

Municipalities in Brazil are transitioning to digital systems for the issuance and management of fibromyalgia identification cards.

In João Pessoa, the municipal health department launched a digital application process via the ‘João Pessoa na Palma da Mão’ mobile app. This system is designed to standardize issuance and provide faster tracking for individuals diagnosed with the condition, who use the card to access priority services and legal rights. Applicants must provide specific medical reports and identification through the app, with processing times of up to 60 days.

Similarly, Campo Grande updated its process by transitioning requests to the ‘Portal Cuida Mais’ platform. This digital tool allows citizens to submit applications and monitor progress online. The requirements in Campo Grande include specific identification documents and a medical report with a fibromyalgia CID issued within the last six months, with an analysis period of up to 21 days.
