Abstract
The World Health Organization defines chronic illness like that which has a long duration and is usually slow progression. On the other hand, according to the European Commission, the chronic disease is a disease of long evolution that often involves disability or complications that can affect the autonomy and the quality of life of the people who suffer it.
Against this reality, it is necessary to consider how to offer a model of attention that is more resolute in the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases, moving toward a comprehensive and integrated care model, Laboratories among the various professionals and organizations that work in different healthcare areas.
