You can update the doctor we register patients under in the General Settings page of the Hub!
At the point of registration, you can assign a patient's named GP randomly according to a share. Think of this like ratios in baking or cocktails! 🥂
For example, if you add three named GPs and give each a share of 1, then patients will get assigned equally. But if you increase one of their shares, new patients will be weighted more towards them. The percentages along the right show you the split. You can add or remove a usual GP anytime!

SystmOne (S1) Practices
If your practice uses S1 you'll need to set up the Usual GP as well as the Registered GP.
At the moment, we can only have one registering GP with a rotating usual GP. From speaking with other S1 practices, they’ve mentioned that they don’t worry too much about the registering GP and focus more on the usual GP.
Most S1 practices will set up the usual GP to be the same as the registering GP, and then update this person every week or so to evenly spread things out between the doctors.
