This seminar, part of Pulse's highly-practical and interactive business series, is aimed at GPs and practice managers striving to ensure their practice survives and prospers during tough economic times and throughout a challenging transition to GP commissioning. The programme is being updated to bring you the very latest developments in practice finance, tax and pensions.

Our acclaimed line-up of speakers, from finance experts to business-savvy GPs, will challenge you to think strategically about your practice finances and the direction your practice is going in the lean years. They will cover big issues that have arisen from this year's contract deal, including the likely impact of the new, tougher QOF on your practice finances, how to manage the cut in extended hours payments and how to maximise income through the patient engagement DES.

You will get answers to key questions, including:

  • Should you be looking to boost your income through private work?
  • Will you need to let staff go to balance your books and is it cost-effective for your practice to continue with extended hours?

You will leave this seminar thoroughly updated on all aspects of practice finance and with the know-how to get your practice financially fit to thrive in a very different NHS.

Who should attend?

  • GPs
  • Practice managers
