This article presents a synthesis on the development of palliative care in Costa Rica, articulated through the National Council for Palliative Care, an institution linked to the Ministry of Public Health. We conclude that the coordination among different organisms that work on behalf of consensus in care is essential to establish norms, protocols, and clinical guidelines for health professionals in end-of-life care.
