Medical Services
Professional on-set medical coverage keeping your Brazilian production crew safe and compliant.
Brazil presents unique health and safety considerations for film productions, from tropical heat, humidity, and monsoon conditions to the challenges of shooting across Amazon rainforest, Atlantic coast, Pantanal wetlands, and highland plateaus. Brazil's SUS (Sistema Único de Saúde) public health system and ANVISA health regulations set specific standards for on-set medical provision that every production must meet. Our medical professionals understand these local requirements and ensure your crew stays safe whether filming in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasília, Salvador, or at remote locations across the country.
We connect you with qualified medical professionals experienced in the specific demands of film production across Brazil. Our network includes on-set medics, paramedics, and safety consultants who understand both Brazilian healthcare protocols and production workflows, providing appropriate medical support from Amazon basin and remote Pantanal locations to major studio shoots.

FAQ
Medical Coverage Expertise
What are the health requirements for filming in Brazil?
Brazilian Ministry of Labor (NR-7 occupational health) and ANVISA guidelines set specific requirements for on-set medical coverage. Productions involving stunts, special effects, large crews, and remote locations require qualified medical personnel. We ensure your production meets all Brazilian compliance standards and help you determine the appropriate level of coverage.
Are vaccinations required for crew traveling to Brazil?
Yellow fever vaccination required for Amazon and Pantanal regions; dengue and malaria prophylaxis recommended for tropical shoots. We provide pre-production health briefings covering all recommended preventive measures for your specific shooting locations.
How do emergency services work in Brazil?
SAMU (192) for medical emergencies and Corpo de Bombeiros (193) for rescue. We establish emergency protocols before production begins, including hospital routes, ambulance contacts, and evacuation plans tailored to each shooting location. For remote locations, we arrange enhanced medical provisions to account for longer response times.
What insurance is needed for medical coverage in Brazil?
Productions typically need Brazilian workplace accident insurance and international production medical coverage with tropical disease provisions. We help you understand the specific requirements and ensure your medical coverage documentation meets both Brazilian regulatory standards and your insurer's requirements.
Can you cover remote locations?
Yes, we provide medical coverage for remote and challenging locations throughout Brazil, including Amazon basin and remote Pantanal locations. We plan for extended response times and bring appropriate equipment for isolated shooting environments.
What about stunt coverage?
For stunt work, we provide enhanced medical coverage with additional personnel and equipment as required. Our medics coordinate with stunt coordinators to understand specific risks and prepare accordingly.
