Objective: to identify the progress of the implementation of the Trucker's and Trucker's Health Card in the Primary Health Care of these professionals. Method: exploratory descriptive study, through structured interviews. The target audience was the health professionals of the health units located near the Stop and Rest Points certified by the Ministry of Infrastructure and male truck drivers present in these same Points. Results: 50% of the respondents answered that in their work route they had already had some need for health care, but 100% answered that they were not attended with the CSCC. 58% of the health professionals interviewed did not have training on PNAISH, 75% answered that they are unaware of the policy and 83% the Technical Note No. 08/2020. In the evaluation of 25% (n=3) of the health professionals, the CSCC facilitated the access to seek care in Primary Care by truck drivers. The following were considered difficulties or obstacles to the implementation of the CSCC: the issue of lack of knowledge of the CSCC by the team (75%), the lack of training (83%) and the low demand of professional truck drivers (58%). Conclusion: this research resulted in a proposal for a Pilot Project to implement access to Primary Health Care with the practice of the Trucker's and Trucker's Health Card.
