Primary Sense
Primary Sense is a population management, clinical-decision support and data extraction tool that uses de-identified data and evidence-based algorithms to enhance a GP’s ability to manage patient care in the community.
GP and practice benefits
Primary Sense was developed with and for local GPs to maximise the value immediately returned to GPs from their patient data through prompts, alerts and reports that are delivered at the point of care. Primary Sense is powered by the world’s leading population health analysis tool, the John Hopkins University ACG® System. This meaningful and real-time information that Primary Sense provides supports GPs and practices to:
- run clinical audits using the in-practice auditing tool
- identify high-risk groups and link appropriate interventions (e.g. vaccinations)
- identify patients at risk of poor health outcomes or chronic disease
- reduce potential adverse reactions to medication via medication safety alerts
- avoid preventable hospitalisations and provide care at the right time
- can be used by both clinical and non-clinical staff
- makes it easier to meet PIP QI documentation requirements by delivering on demand one-click reports
