About the event
General practice has been under immense stress for the past 20 years, given the increased demand for preventive services, longer life spans, higher rates of chronic disease, reduced payments for services, and fewer physicians who perform this type of work. The Covid-19 pandemic added to this stress. General practice will look much different in 20 years. What will this transformation look like? How will physicians fit into it? Will patients like what they see? Are we destined to have robots and algorithms take care of us? Join us for a futurist look at a part of our lives that keeps us healthy and happy.
