The aim of this paper is to present the evolution of Digital Health (DH) in Brazil, in relation to the adoption of DH as a basis for the development of public policies, with a focus on improving the delivery of health care to patients and expanding its coverage. Data from the ICT in Health survey from the Regional Centre for Studies on the Development of the Information Society (Cetic.br) were analysed. The main challenges identified are related to gaps in patient information, which requires interaction between different facilities and to more complex functionalities related to guidelines and guidance in patient care.
