Overview

The digital strategy programme coordinates digital activities in general practice. It is guided by a digital strategy group, which is a committee of the GP Collaborative Board. The group comprises GPs, practice managers and IT specialists from BNSSG general practice; BrisDoc (the out of hours service); and representatives from One Care. It will influence and steer plans around use of technology in practices. Its long-term aim is for practices to have greater ownership of their digital tools and contracts.
