We discussed the role of tele-interconsultation and remote matrix support as resources, within the scope of the Unified Health System, in supporting primary care teams, aiming at maintaining quality and resolution, increasing demand for services, as well as the limitations to their implementation. There are difficulties in access by the population, the need for investment and resistance by professionals and managers.

In addition, the opportunity for learning, safety in conduct and empowerment of primary care professionals is investigated.
