What Centro De Atencion Primaria De Salud does

Centro De Atención Primaria De Salud (CAPS) is the public primary-care service line of the Ministerio de Salud de la Provincia de Jujuy (Ministry of Health of Jujuy Province), a provincial government ministry headquartered at Av. Italia esq. Independencia in San Salvador de Jujuy, Argentina. It operates within a broader integrated provincial health system alongside 24+ hospitals (including Hospital Pablo Soria, Hospital Materno Infantil Dr. Hector Quintana, Hospital San Roque, Hospital Dr. Néstor Sequeiros, Hospital Wenceslao Gallardo, and others), specialized units such as USMA (Mental Health and Addictions), SUNIBROM (food safety and bromatology), CePAT (HIV counseling and testing), and the Departamento Provincial de Farmacia. The CAPS network delivers first-level medical attention, preventive care, vaccinations, health promotion, and disease prevention across neighborhoods and communities throughout Jujuy Province.

The technical layer supporting service delivery includes SALUD DIGITAL - RED CUDE for health services management, a Zoom-based Asistencia Virtual telemedicine platform covering general medicine, COVID-19, mental health, dentistry, nursing, and disability counseling, plus WhatsApp-based appointment scheduling (Turnos por WhatsApp), a unified 0800 777 7711 call center, and geolocation services for finding the nearest CAPS or pharmacy. Additional digital channels include the Banco de Recursos educational material library, the Carnet Sanitario public-portal, and the "Con cada gesto, un cuidado" mental health campaign. The ministry also operates the Sistema Provincial de Residencias de Ciencias de la Salud, training physicians and allied health professionals across multiple specialties at provincial hospitals.

The entity operates as a government state entity under the Gobierno de Jujuy, not a commercial enterprise. Funding flows from provincial and national government budgets; services are provided free of charge to all inhabitants and transients of Jujuy Province. The GTM motion is direct-to-citizen public service delivery. Patients access care through walk-in visits, scheduled appointments via call center or WhatsApp, and virtual consultations. Procurement is conducted through public procurement processes for medical supplies and high-cost medications. The reported 155-employee figure covers the primary-care administrative unit, while total ministry headcount across hospitals, CAPS, and specialized units is materially larger and not separately disclosed.

Same mandate, similar tiered architecture, and directly comparable scope and population health responsibilities.

Others

• OSDE (Organización de Servicios Directos Empresarios): Large Argentine prepaid health plan / network covering a broad outpatient and inpatient footprint; comparable as an alternative population-health delivery channel operating alongside the public system in Jujuy.
