Unlocking insights: general practice staff perspectives on sharing general practice data for research - a scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

General practice data holds significant potential for secondary use in research, offering insights into healthcare delivery, disease patterns, and informing policy development. However, the ethical, practical, and relational complexities of data sharing in general practice settings remain underexplored.
