The Centre, in collaboration with the University of Adelaide, is presently conducting research into the influence of information management systems, multi-functional team working, linkages with other services, and practice management systems on the quality of chronic disease care in the Australian context.

Case studies will be selected from the expressions of interest to highlight the range of approaches practices and Divisions are taking, successes, barriers to success and lessons learned. It is anticipated to have case studies representing large and small practices and the range of Division experiences across large and small, rural and urban Divisions, those who have well-developed programs and those who are still at the early stages of development. If you are interested in nominating someone to present a case study, please download the expression of interest form and return it by e-mail to cgpis@unsw.edu.au . When the case studies to be included in the workshop have been selected, the presenters will be contacted directly.
