Six things that exist only in general practice, with the numbers from those who measure them, and how 10Doctor is drawn around each. Where something is not there yet, it says so.
Substitutions
Taking a holiday without closing the practice.
Two family doctors out of three struggle to find a substitute even for a few days, and in summer up to 40% of practices close. The national agreement requires the substitution to be arranged from the first day of absence and reported to the health authority beyond three days.
With 10Doctor
Invite the substitute into the practice, under their own name. From the top-left menu they enter your practice and see your patients as you do, for as long as they are a member; in their own practice they see none of them. Every line written stays signed by whoever wrote it, and the substitution in the agenda says who covers when.
Triage
The filter that keeps people out of the emergency room.
68% of emergency-room visits are white or green codes, and four million a year are inappropriate: family-doctor cases. They are the chronic conditions and the problems that are not emergencies, where community triage really saves time and lives.
With 10Doctor
Requests arrive already in order: urgent ones on top, the rest in line, and the agenda counts the urgencies still to place. The agent sorts and does not assess: the clinical decision is yours, and the patient page says at once that for an emergency you call 118.
Chronic care
The same patient, for years.
Four Italians in ten have a chronic disease; among the over-65s, one in two has two or more. For 75% of them the first point of reference is the family doctor, not the specialist.
With 10Doctor
The record keeps active problems with their start date and expiry, and every change stays in the history with date and author. Renewing a repeat therapy is a request closed in one gesture, not a phone call.

Home visits
Those who cannot come to the practice.
The national agreement requires a home visit when the patient cannot reach the practice, and planned home care schedules weekly, fortnightly or monthly visits to the very old.
With 10Doctor
The home visit is an appointment type like the others, with its own duration and its place in the agenda, and the patient chooses it at the first step of booking.

The patient cap
Fourteen hundred people, one at a time.
1,383 patients on average, up to 1,800 by derogation, and 8,180 retirements expected by 2028: those who remain inherit the patients of those who leave, often all at once.
With 10Doctor
We bring patients and history in for you, from the software or the portal you used, with no retyping. Search finds the person by name or tax code, and their record opens on the request they made.
The shared practice
Secretary, nurse, colleague: each under their own name.
The general-practice reform and Decree 77 push towards group practices and Community Houses: more people around the same patients, with different responsibilities.
With 10Doctor
Titular doctor, associate, substitute, secretary and nurse each sign in with their own access and see what their role allows. No password passed on a slip of paper, and every act has a name next to it.
