In Brazil, details of the creation of the Mais Médicos (Más Médicos) program have been known with the participation of the Cuban regime. The filtering of telegrams that reconstruct the negotiations carried out between the Government of Havana and Brasila have revealed unknown details such as the antiquity of the talks, which began at least a year before presenting the program, or the petition of Cuba to receive $ 8,000 per month for each doctor.
Under the management of Dilma Rousseff (PT) negotiations were secretive, dark, to avoid reactions of the Brazilian medical class, according to the newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo
According to the leaked documents, in March 2012 a Cuban mission visited Brazil and proposed from "the sending of doctors and nurses" to advising "for the construction of hospitals" and for the development of health systems", at advantageous prices, according to Alexandre Peña Ghisleni, official of the Brazilian Foreign Ministry assigned to the Brazilian Embassy in Cuba.
In October 2011, Cuba created corporations, private companies linked to the government. One is the Cuban Medical Services Distributor (SMC), which exports labor and medical supplies. Medical services are one of the main elements of the Cuban foreign trade agenda, with agreements in 60 countries.
On April 4, 2012, representatives of the Federal Council of Medicine, the Brazilian Medical Association and the National Federation of Physicians went to the Planalto Palace to protest these agreements, then still in the shade, but President Rousseff did not confirm them... although she did not deny them either.

Cuba's "doctors" get paid approximately $40 per month in Cuba and work 7 days per week.
