📋 Tender Overview
The Senate will analyze a bill that provides for the mandatory disclosure of the results of the National Medical Training Assessment Exam (Enamed).
Authored by Senator Astronauta Marcos Pontes (PL-SP), PL 430/2026 determines the availability of the results of the specific assessment for the medical course to the public, in a detailed and anonymous manner, in accordance with the General Law for the Protection of Personal Data -- LGPD (Law 13,709, of 2018). The project includes this obligation in Law 12,871, of 2013, which established the Mais Medicos Program.
The Enamed aims to annually evaluate the performance of students who complete the medical course and provide data on the training of these students. For the author, publishing the results contributes to the purpose of the exam itself.
According to the senator, the text seeks to ensure transparency, quality in medical training and protection of collective health. Pontes states that the unjustified concealment of evaluation data compromises societys right to essential information for understanding the quality of public and private higher education services.
According to the parliamentarian, the matter encourages healthy competition between institutions and strengthens the social responsibility of higher education. According to international experiences from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), transparent assessment systems encourage curricular improvement, investment in academic infrastructure and teacher qualifications, he argues.
Transparency contributes to informed decisions by students and families when choosing courses and universities, reduces information asymmetries and expands educational justice. In a country with deep regional and social inequalities, preventing access to evaluation data perpetuates informational privileges and weakens the States ability to correct distortions in the health professional training system, highlights the senator in justifying the proposal.
The text will be forwarded to the Senate committees for analysis.
