Use case · 02

Appointment-led private GP, with a workflow that survives the inspection.

Pre-consult intake, video-consult notes, post-consultation prescribing and complete patient-record export — without stitching together four tools.

Pre-consult. Consult. Notes signed. Records exported.

A private GP's consultation is the easy part. The hard part is the work that bookends it — intake the night before, signed notes the same evening, records ready when the patient asks. PracticeWise structures that.

01 · End-to-end workflow

From first contact to follow-up.

Status, owner and next action visible at every step — to the patient, the admin and the clinician.

01

Booking & pre-consult intake

Patient books, the structured questionnaire and document upload happens before the consult, not during it.

02

Video or in-person consult

Clinician opens the case with the full intake in view; consult time stays on clinical work, not data entry.

03

Notes & decision signed

Same-session notes signed with GMC reference and timestamp; no overnight backlog.

04

Prescription & GP letter

If indicated, signed prescription routed to nominated pharmacy and GP letter generated for the patient's own GP.

05

Follow-up & record export

Recall scheduled where clinically appropriate; the patient can request a complete record export at any time.

02 · Regulatory considerations

The clauses your inspector reads first.

Specific to private gp services — configured into the workflow above, not pinned as an afterthought.

Record-keeping for CQC inspection format

Notes, prescriptions and consents stored in the patient record in the format CQC inspections look for — designed against CQC expectations, not certified by them.

Same-session signing

Clinician decisions are signed in-session, not retro-fitted; the audit log captures this explicitly.

GP-letter handoff

Letters routed to the patient's NHS GP follow standard format and are recorded against the consultation that generated them.

SAR-ready export

Full record export to PDF on demand, including consents, intake, notes and correspondence.

Operator quote

Same-session notes was the unlock. Our clinicians sign at the end of every appointment because the workflow makes signing easier than not.
