CPD Tracking now available for GPs using Primary Sense

A new feature has been released in Primary Sense designed to support the professional development of GPs using Primary Sense. GPs can collect CPD time simply by using Primary Sense as part of their everyday practice.

How it works

Each interaction with Primary Sense where the GP selects an action on medication safety alerts or care prompts may contribute 2 minutes towards CPD time under Reviewing Performance and Measuring Outcomes categories.

“Primary Sense is making it simple to accrue potential CPD time in your daily work while also targeting your most at-risk patients” – Prof. Mark Morgan, Professor of General Practice and Chair of RACGP Expert Committee for Quality Care.

Key benefits

With the new Primary Sense GP dashboard, GPs will be able to view and download the summary of:

• Medication safety alerts they received and responded to in the past 30 days, compared to PHN average.
• Care prompts they received and responded to in the past 30 days and year to date, compared to PHN average.
• Accumulated time towards quality improvement by interacting with evidence-based Primary Sense alerts and care prompts, each accruing 2 minutes which may be usable for CPD time.
• Reports downloaded in the past 30 days.
• ACG band 4 and 5 patients seen (with high complexity) in the past 12 months compared to PHN average.
