General practice management services
SGPN Business Solutions can manage the everyday operational aspects of a General Practice focussing on sound economic, staff and patient management. SGPN would promote interdisciplinary care involving a range of health professionals working together in the same organisation providing a range of appropriate care to patients. This model supports a true walk-in-walk-out facility for general practitioners. SGPN Business Solutions currently manages and operates the Tuross Head Surgery, a new general practice on the NSW South Coast.
