Message from the President
From July 1, patients and GPs will need to make important decisions
based on informed assessment of the PCEHR benefit, process and
associated commitments. Given the significant issues that still require
clarification prior to the July 1 commencement date, the College will
provide weekly updates via Fridayfacts to update members on new
information and progress made to support GPs opting to participate in
the system.
