General practice activity in Australia 2011–12 is available here

 

A decade of Australian general practice 2002–03 to 2011–12 is available here

The reports describe the clinical the activities of our GPs and the care of their patients. We found that GPs are fitting much more into patient consultations than they were a decade ago. For example patients are presenting with more issues, GPs are managing more problems, and doing more tests and procedures – yet the time spent in the average length of the consultation has stayed the same at about 15 minutes. 

You can look at the press release here.
