The Universidad Austral de Chile Medical School was created in 1966. Itys general goal was to train a general physician with capacities to integrate biological, psychological and social issues, to deal with prevalent diseases as well as with the non referablee casualties, to analyze health situations and to manage health teams. From its beginning, it incorporated anthropological and the public health contents to medical curriculum. Moreover, the formal teaching formation was reduced to 5 years, increasing the intership cycle to 2 years, with an important practice on primary health care in regional hospitals, that included a research profect on health administration. A revision of the School curriculum showed the need of a better horizontal and vertical integration of medical education.
