Esclarecimento
July 24, 2025
Clarification from the Regional Government
Regarding the accounts of the Azores Island Health Units (USI) and regional hospitals, the Regional Government clarifies: The USI went from losses in 2023 to positive net results in 2024, figures that are all the more relevant when, at the same time, priority was given to settling the careers of health professionals, where more than 13 million Euros were invested compared to the same period last year. Several situations that stand out include the Terceira Island Health Unit, which improved its financial status from a loss of 2.7 million Euros to a profit of 4.3 million Euros. The Flores unit also saw significant improvement, going from losses of 224 thousand Euros to a net profit of 2.7 million Euros. Additionally, the Pico Island Health Unit achieved a favourable result of 1.7 million Euros in 2024. The table showing the net results of the USI at the end of 2023 and 2024, in Euros, is attached to this clarification. In 2023, HSEIT reported a loss of 9.4 million Euros, which improved to a loss of 2.6 million Euros in 2024. In Ponta Delgada, HDES experienced a loss of 19.2 million Euros in 2023, while the loss decreased to 15.8 million Euros in 2024. Additionally, Hospital da Horta recorded a loss of 5.6 million Euros in 2023, which was reduced to a loss of 3.5 million Euros in 2024.

mySaúde Açores app now provides test results
Since Monday, the results of clinical tests carried out from this date, 21 July, are now available on the mySaúde Açores app. By accessing the "user documents" tab, users can quickly access their results on their mobile phone without needing to visit the health centre where the tests were carried out. Also starting this week, information related to appointments, including bookings, cancellations, rescheduling and reminders, will now be sent via text message, sent from “mySaude.” Users who have the mySaúde Açores app will receive a notification 48 hours before their scheduled appointment and will only receive a text message reminder if they do not open the app within two hours. The new system covers all Regional Health Service users, whether or not registered with mySaúde Açores. It applies to consultations at health centres on all islands and the Terceira and Horta hospitals. The Divino Espírito Santo Hospital, in São Miguel, will be included when it is integrated into mySaúde Açores, on a date to be announced shortly. The Regional Secretariat for Health and Social Security clarifies that previous methods of communication, such as telephone calls and letters, may still be used in specific cases of users who have difficulty using mobile devices and suggests that, in these cases, the accounts of these users be managed by other family members through the mySaúde Açores app. The app also features a new "dashboard" tab. It allows users to update their health data, such as blood pressure, weight, heart rate and blood sugar levels, so that it can be included in their medical records in the future, thus facilitating communication between users and their doctors as well as monitoring their progress and evolution. The Regional Secretariat for Health and Social Security urges all Azoreans to install and register on the app or portal so they can fully benefit from its features.
