SMARTconsult is an econsultation system designed by practising GPs to meet the real-world needs of general practice — safely, affordably, and with your team in control.
Practices can select from over 70 structured econsultations and toggle each one on or off as needed. You can also set them to automatically activate at 8am and deactivate at 6pm to meet NHS core hours guidance.
It has already processed over 500,000 consults in over 20 GP Practices since 2018 - and is now available to try free for 3 months, with full access to all features, free technical support, and regular updates included.
You can switch individual econsultations on or off at any time depending on your capacity, local priorities, or workforce availability. There are over 70 clinical templates for a range of conditions and you can chose the ones you want to use.
Each template is built around the clinical condition, with focused questions, red flags and relevant history – so you’re not interpreting paragraphs of free text. It gives you a sensible summary that actually helps with triage or planning care.
If a patient reports a red flag symptom, they’re automatically advised to attend A&E or 111. The practice receives the consult so that you can demonstrate safe care navigation (this can be inserted into the medical record).
SMARTconsult filters patients presenting with one of the seven Pharmacy First conditions. If eligible, it provides a direct booking link to their local pharmacy – without the patient having to go through the practice.
Patients are asked to submit theirweight, BP, smoking status and FFT response at the end of each consult. This helps you collect useful public health data with no extra admin.
With recent NHSE and BMA updates, SMARTconsult has been built to ensure your practice remains in full control. You’re the data controller, and we process patient data securely and under your instruction, inline with UK GDPR. A Data Processing Agreement is in place, and integration with Optum and SystmOne is underway. We’re aligned with NHS guidance around structured data and Pharmacy First referrals.
SMARTconsult is powered by embedded AI that ensures every question asked is clinically appropriate, safe, and aligned with the latest NICE guidance. The system uses intelligent logic to dynamically select the most relevant, concise questions based on the condition selected — cutting out unnecessary detail and focusing only on what matters for clinical decision-making.
Unlike static forms or generic templates, SMARTconsult’s AI-driven design ensures that each consultation is tailored, structured, and condition-specific. This reduces the burden on patients and staff, avoids duplication, and produces cleaner, more actionable summaries for clinicians.
By combining clinical guidelines with structured automation, SMARTconsult delivers safer, faster consultations that support GPs and nurse practitioners in managing demand — while keeping practices in full control of what’s offered and how it’s used.
"Since implementing SMARTconsult in our practice, we've seen a significant improvement in managing GP workload. It has streamlined patient triage, reduced unnecessary face-to-face appointments, and allowed us to prioritise those who need in-person care the most. Our team can now work more efficiently, and patients benefit from quicker, more convenient access to medical advice."
"The use of SMARTconsult has allowed us to increase our capacity to assess and manage a number of conditions, without the need for a traditional face to face appointment. By allowing patients to consult electronically, and often outside of traditional surgery hours, we can better serve our community and their evolving healthcare needs. In an ever-pressured healthcare service, advances in digital technology are proving the be ‘game-changing’ for patients and clinicians alike."
