Sustainability and Viability Initiative (SAVI)

The PHN is leading the fundamental shift towards a sustainable and thriving primary healthcare care sector with the General Practice Sustainability and Viability Initiative (SAVI).

This long-term initiative is designed to transform the landscape and will support individual practices to optimise their performance, enhancing, and stabilising the general practice sector across the HNECC PHN region.

Through SAVI, every general practice across the region will have the opportunity to gain key insights into their business, unveiling their strengths and areas for improvement. General practices will be able to access relevant support and resources to boost performance across finance, workforce, and operational areas.

SAVI equips general practices with essential tools to assess financial health and identify avenues for revenue optimisation.

Through an interactive platform featuring predictive analytics, SAVI empowers practice owners and managers to identify risks and opportunities so they can make informed decisions crucial for business viability and sustained success.

In collaboration with partners, the PHN extends robust specialist support for practices seeking to capitalise on this opportunity. This support aims to enhance performance, ensuring sustainable success for an efficient, effective primary healthcare workforce and general practice sector.
