GPs are the first point of contact for most Australians, whether it is to address immediate health concerns, preventative health approaches or the management of chronic conditions.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics Patient Experience Survey, 82% of Australians visited their GP in the previous 12 months, compared to 36% who visited a specialist.
The RACGP Foundation puts findings from evidence-based research immediately into the hands of GPs at the frontline of our health system.
