Appointments in General Practice
Contact us and share your opinionAppointments in General Practice- A digital guide Welcome Live episode, please interact Intoductions Todays episode inspired by chat on NHS Digital Whats App group about appointments and access 2 themes to cover…. What is an appointment? And what will count as activity Total triage, before and after - what is the best option for the practice and its patientsUp-coming document from NHSE will set out how NHSE will harvest/access data from CRMS (S1/EMIS) to assess activity within general practice to the level of individual surgeries. Information such as number and type of appointments. Led to speculation about how this data will be used in the future…..Concerns that used to judge practices and that incorrect or unfair conclusions might be reached?Used to allocate resources? Correctly? Similar concernsRegulatory attention?Use by the media?What constitutes as an appointment? Online / Telephone /video/ F2f / Administrative activity? - would this be covered by online/asynchronous? How do we log workload in practice, everything have an appointment slot ie oncall work/ admin etc. Supervision/ second opinion / Administrative tasks (non patient content but often time consuming) Dichotomy of primary vs secondary care contracts - PBR vs capitation based contract. Thoughts? GandhiNeeds to be some accountability for spending public money?But will the right things be counted?Demand? Or under delivery?Can this data be helpful? If demand/need reliably captured then can build case for redistribution? Thoughts?
