About this education

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly changing the way general practices operate, improving efficiency, streamlining workflows, and unlocking new ways to enhance patient care. But alongside these benefits come important responsibilities around privacy, consent, and safe implementation.

 

In this practical webinar, we’ll explore how AI is being used in general practice to: 

  • Automate time-consuming tasks like clinical note-taking and patient follow-up
  • Improve financial efficiency by optimising billing, reducing admin time, and better allocating practice resources
  • Enhance patient experience through faster, more consistent service delivery

This session will also address some of the risks and regulatory considerations that practice owners and managers need to understand, including:


  • Ensuring AI tools meet Australian medical, privacy, and data security standards
  • Navigating consent requirements when AI is used in patient care
  • Understanding the implications of recent privacy law updates, including new obligations for staff awareness and policy transparency
  • Complying with surveillance laws and professional responsibilities when using AI tools
  • Training admin and clinical staff to confidently communicate AI use to patients


Whether you’re already using AI or just exploring its potential, this webinar will equip you with the knowledge to make informed, compliant, and strategic decisions about integrating AI in your practice.
