The principle and practice of population health management is now well established in policy and practice, and at both system and primary care network (PCN), understanding and responding to your population’s health needs is critical. It is critical to the future success and quality in the NHS care. Group clinics are emerging as a powerful tool to drive health improvement, with exemplars in both primary and specialist care emerging. There is already a strong evidence base (mainly evaluating face to face group clinics) to back up this way of working.
This session will bring together those who have applied group clinics and those focused on improving population health in a a safe space to share experiences and reflect together on:
- The opportunities and challenges of using group clinic models to improve population health
- What needs to happen to support teams to use population health data to inform group clinic model development
Following the session, we will produce a top tips paper to support the planning of group clinic models in the context of population health improvement
