OBJETIVO: Estabelecer a utilização de serviços médicos ambulatoriais na Cidade de Pelotas, RS, Brasil. METODOLOGIA: Foi feito estudo transversal amostral com base populacional. Foram entrevistados 1.657 adultos, durante os meses de março e junho de 1992. As perdas amostrais totalizaram 9,7%. Durante a análise utilizou-se duas variáveis dependentes: o tipo de serviço de saúde classificado quanto à natureza do lucro e a freqüência de consultas durante o último ano. RESULTADOS: Na análise verificou-se que o tipo de serviço estava associado com variáveis sociais tais como classe social, propriamente dita, escolaridade e local de residência. A variável freqüência de consultas relacionou-se com sexo feminino, fatores de risco e motivos de consultas. CONCLUSÃO: Concluiu-se que a escolha do tipo de serviço de saúde dependia de fatores ligados à classe social antes do que variáveis associadas à gravidade dos problemas de saúde.
