Say hello to paperless GP17 forms 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

As a Scottish NHS practice, you deal with GP17 forms every day – but there’s no need to rely on tedious paper-based form-filling. Practices across Scotland are already saving time with GP17 forms with Dentally!  

We’ve simplified the process with digital GP17 forms, to ensure a smoother experience for you and your patients. With Dentally Portal’s Concierge, your patients can complete their GP17 forms on a tablet while they're in the practice, providing a quicker and more efficient experience for them, while reducing paperwork and repetitive admin for you. 

Why try digital GP17 forms? 

This simple but powerful upgrade will save you time while making your reception workflows more efficient and reliable. 

  • Better patient experience – An easier, more accessible format for patients to complete the GP17, with less time waiting around at reception. 
  • Paperless admin – Reduce the amount of paperwork you have to print, scan and file every day, without compromising security. Completed forms go straight through to the patient’s record, ensuring no data is lost. 
  • Reduced administrative burden – With no need for manual form management, your team will have more time to focus on patient care – as well as fewer lost forms!  
  • Maintain compliance – Ensure greater accuracy and a reduced chance of human error. Plus, our digital GP17 forms have been developed in direct compliance with NHS Scotland regulations and requirements. 

"Completing the GP17s digitally is a game changer. We don’t need to fill in patient details on hundreds of forms every single day, or keep thousands of physical copies, saving us so much reception time and space."

A smoother reception experience 

GP17 works seamlessly with Dentally’s new visit management panel – open the panel to easily view all of today's appointments, and you'll be able to see at a glance if any outstanding actions need completing – without having to interrupt your other work to complete them. 

When a patient arrives at reception, simply check them in via the panel, and it'll prompt you if they need to complete Part 1 or 2 of their GP17. Hand over the tablet and the form can be signed in seconds – efficient and effortless for everyone!
