Details
General practice is under increasing pressure to operate efficiently while maintaining high-quality patient care. At our busy regional practice, we’ve embraced a culture of innovation—leveraging AI-driven solutions and process improvements to optimise workflows, enhance patient experiences, and support practice sustainability.
This session will present a real-world case study demonstrating how incremental "one percenters" and larger AI-powered innovations have transformed our operations. From automating administrative tasks to reducing GP burnout and improving patient access, we’ll showcase practical, scalable solutions that deliver measurable results.
