If you have been struggling just to keep your practice staffed and doors open in the past two years of the pandemic, that’s an achievement in itself.
But with COVID-19 wreaking havoc across Australia and now officially in WA in growing case numbers, GPs can expect to face unprecedented challenges around managing COVID patients and keeping themselves and their staff safe.
Experts argue GPs still need to keep their eye on the ball in terms of planning for the longer-term future and viability of their practice.
The Royal Australian College of GPs is organising an in-person event in Perth on September 7, aimed at helping doctors develop a successful business and strategic plan for their business.
The practice owners’ masterclass is a one-day interactive workshop, built around an existing clinic case study of two GP owners. The workshop aims to guide doctors through the development of a business and strategic plan covering these key areas:
- Development of a business and strategic plan
- Accounting and financials
- Getting the best out of your people and practice staff
- Patients and services
- Doctor payments
According to the RACGP, participants will come away from this highly practical workshop with real-world solutions and strategies to introduce into their practice immediately.
Registrations for this event will open in May 2022. For more information email the RACGP at wa.events@racgp.org.au.
