The Pinnacle rural committee is seeking rural GP representatives. The committee aims to help rural practice and its enrolled population through:
- the distribution of rural funding in a fair and consistent manner
- advocating for rural general practice at a national level
- prioritising and delivering projects that can support the wider Pinnacle rural general practice network.
You can read about the achievements of the rural committee in the Pinnacle performance report (page 26 and 27).
Meetings are held for around two hours in the early evening, 4-5 times a year. Videoconference is available.
