General practitioners (GPs) met their postgraduate educational allowance target primarily through disease management meetings. Health promotion activities saw low engagement, and overall meeting attendance remained minimal.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • General Practice
  • Continuing Professional Development

Background:

  • General practitioners (GPs) require ongoing professional development.
  • Postgraduate educational allowances (PGEA) incentivize GP training.
  • Understanding GP engagement with educational activities is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze GP attendance patterns for the annual postgraduate educational allowance (PGEA).
  • To identify which categories of meetings are most utilized by GPs.
  • To assess the impact of sponsorship on meeting attendance.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of GP attendance records for the postgraduate educational allowance.
  • Categorization of meetings by subject matter (e.g., disease management, health promotion).

  • Comparison of attendance rates for sponsored versus non-sponsored meetings.

    • Main Results:

    • GPs primarily fulfilled their PGEA requirements via short disease management meetings.
    • Health promotion meetings had low uptake in both provision and attendance.
    • Sponsored meetings attracted more participants, but overall mean attendance was low across all meeting types.

    Conclusions:

    • Current postgraduate educational allowance structures may inadvertently favor certain meeting types.
    • Strategies to increase engagement in health promotion and other areas are needed.
    • Further research into optimizing GP continuing professional development delivery is recommended.
