Conselho Regional De Medicina Do Estado Da Paraiba

What Conselho Regional De Medicina Do Estado Da Paraiba does

Conselho Regional de Medicina do Estado da Paraíba (CRM-PB) is a Brazilian statutory regulatory body (autarquia) operating under the national Conselho Federal de Medicina (CFM) system. Established under Lei 3.268/1957, it holds exclusive jurisdiction over the licensing, supervision, and ethical discipline of physicians and medical establishments throughout the state of Paraíba, headquartered in João Pessoa. The council serves three constituencies: licensed physicians (registration, annual fees, specialty certification via RQE, ethics oversight, continuing education), medical companies and practices (company registration, inspection compliance, certidões), and citizens of Paraíba (physician lookup, complaint filing, document validation). Leadership is elected, with Bruno Leandro de Souza currently serving as President.

CRM-PB's technology stack centers on a suite of interconnected digital platforms, most operated at the CFM national level with regional implementation. The flagship CRM Virtual portal provides self-service access to registration management, annual fee payment, certificate issuance, and credential updates. Prescrição Eletrônica is a free electronic prescription system linking physicians, patients, and pharmacies; Processo Administrativo Eletrônico (PAe) handles electronic administrative procedures; CRM-PB ON delivers continuing medical education via video and distance-learning courses; the Fiscalização Platform supports inspection of medical establishments; and the Web Service API exposes physician registry data for programmatic access. Supporting tools include Atesta CFM (digital medical attestations), Certificado Digital CFM (digital signatures), Medicina Segura (complaint and professional safety tool), and an online document validator. Physical presence is maintained through the João Pessoa headquarters and three regional delegations in Campina Grande, Patos, and Cajazeiras.

Revenue is generated through three streams: recurring annual registration fees (anuidades) from physicians, transaction-based fees for certificates, RQE specialty registration, and document certification, plus federal transfers from CFM for operational support and national programs. The organization maintains a transparency portal publishing financial reports, budgets, and accountability data, but specific revenue figures are not publicly disclosed. The council employs between 11 and 50 staff and reports active operating status across all service lines and regional offices.
