[Infarction Code care protocol, towards the federalization of IMSS Bienestar]

Since 2015, the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS) has developed and implemented the Infarct Code emergency care protocol, with the aim of improving the diagnosis and treatment of acute myocardial infarction and thus eventually reducing mortality. In the context of the federalization and implementation of the new IMSS Bienestar care model in several states, the possibility of increasing the coverage and extension of the protocol service networks is presented, not only to eligible population but also to those who do not have social security and resides in contexts of social marginalization, to comply with article 4o. constitutional. This document describes how the proposal was made to extend and increase the service network of the Infarct Code care protocol, based on material, human and infrastructure resources of the IMSS Ordinario and Bienestar.
