In order to be able to use BIFAP as a source of information for the COVID-19 research, we are, together with the participating autonomous communities, updating the data more frequently and extracting data from additional sources of information.

Specifically, BIFAP now includes information updated as of April 30th, 2021 on the primary care medical record of patients in health services in 4 autonomous communities (around 6 million patients). In addition, information is available on the use of hospital dispensing drugs and hospital diagnoses.
