Sumario:OBJECTIVE: This study aims to present a proof of concept of a dashboard on a set of indicators of access to primary healthcare (PHC) based on electronic medical records (EMRs). METHODS: This research builds on a multi-method design study including (1) a systematic review, (2) a pilot phase and (3) the development of a dashboard. RESULTS: Eight indicators were carefully selected and successfully extracted from EMRs obtained from 151 PHC providers. Indicators of access over time, as well as among providers and among clinics, have been enabled in the dashboard. CONCLUSION: EMR data enabled the development of a real-time dashboard on access, giving PHC providers a reliable portrait of their own practice, its evolution over time and how it compares with those of their peers.
