PINHEIRO, Ana Paula. Information systems in the practice of the family physician: where is the interoperability?. []. , 34, 4, pp.250-254. ISSN 2182-5173.

At the moment, clinical information systems are essential in Health Units, allowing the sharing of information, with improvement of efficiency and quality of health care. This work intends to analyze the various information systems witch a family physician, in the Portuguese National Health Service, can handle daily in their clinical practice, as well as their interoperability. The author uses her own experience as a family physician in a Family Health Unit to describe this reality. Interoperability established between the various systems is minimal, which leads to professional wear and waste of resources.
