Wednesday 27 March 2002 - 9.15am - 4.15pm

GPDV convened a statewide workshop on GP service coordination on 27th March. 25 PCPs and 21 divisions attended. This is the first of 3 workshops to be held in 2002 bringing together divisions and PCP staff with the following goals:

• To illustrate the work currently being undertaken between divisions and PCPs to achieve quality care planning and effective referral between GPs and other service providers as a basis for service coordination
• To provide an overview of current issues, challenges and response options for division and PCP staff to consider in their joint work
• To enable participants to identify successful strategic approaches to their joint work.
