Australian GP Industry Report

In providing high quality healthcare, it is essential for GPs to be across the state of the local medical industry and its future direction.

As Natalie Smith, Head of Health at ANZ, says: “GPs play a critical role in the healthcare industry. Understanding the trends and impacts on GPs is important to ensure access and quality are maintained for patients.”

Yet with an abundance of reports, statistics, trends and predictions available, finding the most relevant information can be time-consuming and overwhelming.

That’s why we wanted to make it easy for GPs to access the latest industry information all in one place. So we’ve scoured reports, articles and statistics, and together with some patient insights from our own data, we have compiled a snapshot of the current Australian GP industry.

Offering a complete view of Australia’s GP market, this report is designed to give GPs a deeper insight into the changing landscape of general practice, the rising expectations of patients and the evolving relationship that both practitioners and patients have with technology.

Highlights from the report include:

• GP Population – age ranges, head count by state, geographical dispersion and more
• Practice Trends – insight into the changing nature of the ‘average’ GP surgery and ownership
• Digital Healthcare – analysis of how practices are meeting patient expectations
• Patient Behaviour – insight into demographics of online bookers, visit frequency and practice loyalty
