To investigate the situation of the newborn Hearing screening in public and private hospital/maternities, where babies delivery are performed in Brazil. The list of hospitals followed the DATASUS information. Method: a digital questionnaire was sent by email, in order to make the survey about the type of hospital, and also about the information concerning if the hospital is performing the screening, financial, approach, methodology and difficulties to implement the hearing screening. The responses were sent to statistical analyses. Results: In Brazil, according to DATASUS, there are 3571 facilities delivering babies. It was sent 1987 (55,6%) emails, which addresses were available. South and Southeast regions were considered the ones with the best net communication available. For 966 hospitals it was possible to confirm the email arrival, but only 69 (7,1%) answered the questionnaire, being 22 of them (31,9%) belonging to Rede Cegonha , a network of hospitals with federal government support to develop delivery best practice actions. Although there is a federal law since 2010, making mandatory the newborn hearing screening, it was noted that a lot of hospitals did not implemented this health care action for the babies. All hospitals responding the survey would like to have a NHS program, except one, because this facility is too small to support such a cost. Conclusions: There was a very low adherence to the present survey from hospitals, limiting the research to 7,1% of the total of hospitals. There is the necessity of partnerships in order to inform most hospitals about protocols, risk indicators, and network established for diagnostic and management of the hearing loss in babies
