Abstract
The Primary Health Care strategy is based on organization of interdisciplinary teams and comprehensive approach to health, disease and health care processes. To strengthen information systems so that they represent primary health care complexities, participatory meetings were held with primary care practitioners from the public health care system of Buenos Aires City. Terms for the record tool and its components were chosen using consensus methodologies. This process involved 300 practitioners from 49 centers, and submission of 21 proposals. It was decided to change the term "Electronic Medical Record" with "Comprehensive Health Record." It was also agreed that, apart from "Reason for Consultation," the field "Problem Situation" would be added, that "Care Service" would be replaced with "Care Act," and that a new module "Health Team Management and Education Activities" would be included to document practitioners team activities.
