Abstract: Objective: Describe and compare actions of attention and rehabilitation in Primary Health Care (PHC) addressed to Persons with Disabilities (PWD) in Brazil. Methods: Retrospective data from Quality Assessment Program in Primary Care (PMAQ-AB, in Portuguese) were collected and analyzed considering Module IV of the 2nd (2015) and 3rd (2018) Cycles of the PMAQ-AB. Comparisons of the positive answers (yes) of the attention provided to PWD in the PHC were conducted by establishing the Prevalence Ratio (PR). The 2nd Cycle was the reference category, and the data were analyzed as national or regional samples. Results: The prevalence of positive answers for PWD care increased in the 3rd Cycle in the national sample concerning support in activities addressed to PWD, assessment and home adaptations, and promotion of the inclusion of PWD in sports and leisure activities. The prevalence of rehabilitation actions in PHC in Brazil has also increased. Changes in PWD care were found in the different geographical regions of Brazil. The Northeast region had the highest increase in attention activities for PWD, following the national trend, including an increase in referral for prostheses/orthotics and assistive devices. Conclusion: For most of the activities evaluated, there was an increase in performance prevalence between the assessments of the 2nd and 3rd Cycles of the PMAQ-AB. However, there is still a need to expand the offer of services in most regions of the country, favoring integral care for PWD. ; Objetivo: Descrever e comparar ações de atenção e reabilitação na Atenção Primaria à Saúde (APS) direcionados à Pessoa com Deficiência (PCD) no Brasil.
