This Monday, the Ministries of Health and Education announced that 99 courses could be punished for not achieving a score considered satisfactory in the first edition of the exam.
Enamed was created by the MEC to assess the quality of doctor training in Brazil. It is a response to one and wants to create a kind of area, with its own assessment not linked to the ministry, but to the CFM.

President of the CFM, José Hiran Gallo states that the result shows “one”.
