About this Hub

Running a medical practice as a business that serves both patients and your life.

GPs, specialists, medical practice operations, and the realities of practising medicine while operating a business under Medicare, MBS, and the AHPRA regulatory frame. Most medical practitioners are taught medicine, not business. This Hub is for Members running medical practices — solo GPs, group practices, specialist clinics — and the specialists who help them operate sustainably.

Start with a Pillar

Three starting Pillars. Pick the one closest to your situation.

Each Pillar is a structured pass through one part of running this kind of practice. Five questions, five dimensions, a clear read on where you stand. Take the Pillar; your Facilitator routes the result to the right specialist.

Pillar 01 · Free · 5 minutes

Medical Practice Health

Five questions across five dimensions. A read on whether the practice is running on systems and capacity it can sustain — or on the principal's personal endurance.

Clinical workload
How does the current patient load compare to the load the practice is designed and resourced to carry?
Practice operations
Is the practice running on systems and people that scale, or on the practitioner's personal capacity?
Financial health
Do you know the gross billings, net practice income, and practitioner take-home for each principal in the practice?
Compliance and risk
When did you last review AHPRA, Medicare, and clinical-governance compliance against current requirements?
Strategic outlook
Is the practice positioned for the next five years of demand and regulation, or living off the last five?
Pillar 02 · Free · 5 minutes

Billing & Revenue

Five questions across five dimensions. The honest read on how the practice converts patient hours into revenue — and where the leaks are.

Billing model
How clear and deliberate is the practice's mix of bulk-billing, mixed-billing, and private fee work?
MBS optimisation
Are practitioners billing the items their consultations actually warrant, or undercoding from habit?
Revenue per consultation
How does your average revenue per consultation compare to the practice's design assumptions?
Bad debt and write-offs
How much income leaks through unpaid accounts, missed billing, or unclaimed items each year?
Pricing leadership
When did the practice last increase its private fees, and what was the patient response?
Pillar 03 · Free · 5 minutes

Practice Sustainability Strategy

Five questions across five dimensions. The longer view — whether the practice can outlast its current principals or dissolves when they stop working.

Practitioner wellbeing
Are the principals working at a pace they could sustain for another decade, or one that risks burnout within five years?
Workforce stability
How exposed is the practice if a single key practitioner left tomorrow?
Succession path
Is there a credible plan for the practice to outlast its current principals, or does it dissolve when they stop working?
Capital position
Does the practice have the capital reserves to weather a six-month revenue dip without distress?
Strategic clarity
Does the practice know what it is trying to be in five years, or is it drifting on inertia?
The Twelve Spokes

Twelve specialty zones inside this Hub.

Each Spoke routes Members to a specialist Service Provider once a Pillar surfaces what they need. Spokes are the destinations the Pillars route into — full Spoke pages come online once Pillars are operating at the full standard.
