AMAS, a Associação Mineira de Assistência à Saúde, wants to reach the milestone of 1,000 free consultations by December in Lavras. Once it gets there, it will offer 1,000 free laboratory tests to the public. The announcement was made on Wednesday (11) on Revista da Cidade, at Rádio Cultura.
According to the association, the goal has guaranteed funding. Outreach drives in gynecology and ophthalmology are still planned for November, and two others are scheduled for December. Over the last weekend, 110 ultrasound exams were performed, and the results are being delivered at the headquarters.
The lab tests will be carried out with a partner laboratory. AMAS will announce the opening of registration, and people whose exam requests have been stuck in the SUS queue will also be able to sign up.
The association is located at Rua Orlando Corsini Gattini, 180, in Morada do Sol III, on the highest point of the neighborhood, near the Copasa water tower. A bus line runs nearby.
