The Chilean general practitioner program, or the assigned and training phase, along with strengthening primary care in the healthcare network, is an excellent tool for medical training. Therefore, it is worth reflecting, based on current literature on medical training, on its role as a training space, in the development of professional identity, and in the strengthening of medical professionalism. This approach also includes the implications of this approach for its management in the medium and long term, with a view to proposing measures to strengthen this state policy.
