Business Case Development
The changing demands on Primary Care often require practices to develop robust business case documents. This can be as a result of Practice Based Commissioning or because of planned premises relocation. The business case is required to detail the need for investment and GPI+ have a wealth of expertise in relation to bid preparation and development. Our consultants can help you better understand your own requirements and work with you to find the most appropriate solutions. We can then develop a comprehensive business case outlining the investment requirements, strategic importance and ultimately making a convincing argument for the case for change.
PBC Partner
Practice Based Commissioning (PBC) is central to the Government's planned reforms for the Health Service. This position has recently been emphasised by Lord Darzi and as investors in primary care we are the ideal partner to help you establish a provider company to maximise the opportunities offered by PBC. We can provide start up funding and business support and assist you in establishing an appropriate commercial structure, specific to your local context.
Premises Healthcheck
In order to achieve the Government's goal of transfering services from secondary to primary care, many practices will require larger or improved facilities. What is the health status of your existing building? What plans does the PCT or LHB or Local Planning Authority have for your locality? How accessible is your building for disabled patients? Do you have room to grow? We can answer these questions for you by carrying out a no cost, no obligation review of your existing premises.
Business Healthcheck
Are you maximising your income? Could you improve on your QoF score or improve your internal policies? Do you have an active patient participation group? As part of our 'Business Healthcheck' we can work with you to take an in-depth look at how your practice is running and look at how it could be even more effective.
GP Paperlite
Going paperless can often unlock additional space to allow greater revenue to be generated from existing space. Working with market leaders in document management, GPI+ can offer a scanning service to provide a complete solution for 'in practice document management'. This service can be offered at a significant discount to existing or new customers of GPI.
GPTV
The NHS is not just about treating ill health but is also about promoting good health. Through GPTV you can easily promote good health and keep patients up to date with new developments within your practice. This is achieved through the installation of state of the art plasma TV screens which can be used to promote services, educate patients and creates advertising opportunities for local or national businesses. This creates an additional risk free revenue stream for your practice whilst benefiting patients with up to date information and health promotion.
