In an era of tightening regulations, heightened scrutiny, and growing public demand for transparency, a “tick-box” approach to compliance is no longer enough. Many organisations proudly point to their compliance policies as proof of integrity — but when was the last time you asked: Is this policy actually fit for purpose?

FPM members can access a comprehensive selection of policies, templates and toolkits on our flagship FPM Core software.

Managing a healthcare practice is demanding enough without the added stress of meeting Care Quality Commission (CQC) standards and staying on top of policy updates. For many practice managers, compliance isn't just a task—it’s a constant source of anxiety.

Running a primary care practice today means doing much more than delivering quality patient care. Between managing a busy schedule, coordinating staff, and staying on top of changing healthcare regulations, compliance can quickly become overwhelming.

How can First Practice Management’s FPM Core Compliance Software help cut costs, and improve efficiency—especially important in the current NHS cost-cutting environment?

The primary care sector stands at the forefront of healthcare. It's tasked with delivering comprehensive, patient-centered services in an increasingly complex landscape of regulatory and technological challenges. In 2025, FPM Core is a game-changing tool to empower primary care providers to adapt, innovate, and thrive. 

When North-East charity Billy's Lifeline set up to carry out crucial work helping relatives of those who have taken their own lives, they chose FPM Core to guarantee their compliance in this highly-regulated sector. Here's why.

In the evolving healthcare landscape, Primary Care Networks (PCNs) are embracing digital transformation to improve efficiency, patient care, and collaboration. Led by Clinical Directors and Digital Transformation Leads (DTLs), this shift is enhancing how practices operate, driving better outcomes, and optimising resources.

Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) and Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) are transforming healthcare delivery by coordinating care across multiple organisations. However, managing policy compliance and embracing digital transformation in such a complex environment can be challenging. FPM Core offers a powerful solution to streamline compliance and drive digital efficiency across the system.
