Is your practice as productive as it could be? Business health check event, 24 September 2015 - book your place now

Whatever lies in store for General Practice, running your practice as an effective and efficient business is becoming increasingly critical – for partners, staff and most importantly, for all patients. To do this you need to be able to identify what you can improve, where you can save time and resources to re-invest in patient care, what a good practice will look like and how to bring about the changes you need to get there.

Date:

Thursday 24 September 2015

Time:

9.00am – 4.30pm (registration from 9.00am – 9.30am)

Venue:

Londonwide LMCs, Entrance D, Tavistock House South, Tavistock Square, London WC1H 9LG

Cost:

£160 (inclusive of VAT) for attendees from Londonwide practices
£175 (inclusive of VAT) for attendees from practices from other areas 

This course is primarily for GPs and practice managers looking to implement business improvement across a defined business unit, a GP Practice or a group of practices. It draws briefly on the “Productive General Practice” material developed by the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement and we will provide signposts to further engagement with specialist suppliers of that programme for those interested. The main focus is on practical, generic business improvement methods.
