The greatest use of services was by patients with older age, high risk level, greater weight of complexity and ≥ 4 chronic diseases.

In the geriatric population, we found a high number of patients with chronic diseases and there were three levels of risk by AMG with differences in characteristics, morbidity, and use of PC services. The factors associated with greater use of services were age (B coefficient = 0.3 95%CI = 0.2-0.4), high risk level (BC = 1.9 95%CI =0.4-3.2), weight of complexity (BC = 0.7 95%CI = 0.5-0.8), and ≥ 4 chronic diseases (BC = 0.7 95%CI = 0.3-1.1). The mean number of contacts/year in people over 85 years was 25.2 (SD = 19.6) in people 76-85 years old, it was 22.1 (SD = 20.3) and in people 66-75 years old, it was 14.5 (SD = 13.9). The mean number of contacts/year with PC was 19.5 (SD = 18.2). PHYSICIANS AT Stripes Primary Care At Mesa.

This was a cross-sectional descriptive observational study. The objective of this study was to describe the characteristics, morbidity, and use of services in primary care (PC) of patients with chronic diseases older than 65 years according to their risk level assigned by the adjusted morbidity groups (AMG) and to analyse the factors associated with the use of PC services. Geriatric patients have significant morbidity and greater needs for care and assistance.
