Abstract

Since the first case reported by the new coronavirus in Peru, different strategies have been implemented to improve health services, with great emphasis on the hospital response. In this article, we review the actions that Peruvian government tried to implement in Primary Care. We propose key measures such as the implementation of fever clinics in primary care, home health care, insertion of family doctors and intensive use of telephone consultations and other ICTs, their adoption and implementation in the Peruvian reality, would achieve a more effective response towards the COVID-19 pandemic.
