This paper presents an overview of relevant sources for the study of the development of the “Catalan Health Model” during the twentieth century, and the ideas and institutions influencing its evolution. The paper indicates that it is a health system configuration where the core is public universal health assistance, complemented by the private health sector. Also, that it is the result of a dynamic traditional mixed model organization. The sources for the study of this health system are scattered in public or private archives and published reports. Due to the disruptions of war and periods of dictatorship, the model has gaps or becomes disjointed.
