For UK general practice.

Medicine begins
before the patient speaks.

Labas GP is an operations platform for primary care. Asha gathers patient history before the visit. Our mobile unit brings lab-grade bloods, X-ray and ultrasound to the door. Care Intelligence surfaces who's due for review. One session instead of a six-week trail. Every decision still in the GP's hands.

In ninety seconds
  • 01Six weeks become one session. Pre-consultation, mobile bloods, and plan in one GP visit.
  • 02The GP stays in charge. Labas never diagnoses, codes, or invites a patient without GP approval.
  • 03The economics work. Below NHS CDC tariffs. One avoided admission pays for months of platform.

Six weeks of waiting.
One session.

The traditional UK primary care pathway scatters a single clinical decision across weeks. Appointments, waits, bloods, more waits, Advice and Guidance, a review appointment. Labas GP closes the whole loop in one visit. Hover any event for detail. Toggle between the two pathways below.

The patient calls the practice as they always have.

Nothing changes about how patients book. Reception calls, online forms, the existing flow. What changes is what happens next. The GP sends a pre-consultation link, and the clock starts on a single closed loop rather than a six-week trail of appointments.

Asha never suggests a diagnosis. Asha never recommends a test. Asha never applies a clinical code. Asha structures what the patient said, in the order a GP needs to hear it. Every clinical decision is the GP's, from the first code to the last signature.

Care Intelligence
Filter. Action.

The list that never forgets.

Labas GP watches your patient list against NICE recall intervals and quietly raises its hand when someone is due. The HbA1c that is fourteen months old. The cardiovascular review missed last quarter. The BP check a hypertensive patient has not had in a year.

The system does not book. It does not invite. It does not decide who should be seen. It surfaces the patients who are due, names the reason, and waits for the GP to act. Every invitation is sent by a clinician, reviewed by a clinician, and logged against the decision-maker.

What Care Intelligence looks like to the patient
Tap a scenario

Not a summons.
A letter from the practice.

Care Intelligence surfaces the patient. The GP approves the invite. Labas delivers the email. What arrives in the patient's inbox is written in their language, in the voice of their practice, explaining why the appointment matters and what to expect.

FromDr Sarah Ahmed, GP <care@yourpartnerpractice.nhs.uk>
SubjectYour diabetes check is due, Patricia

Your last blood test was fourteen months ago. We'd like to see how you're doing.

Patricia, we've been looking after your diabetes together for a while now. Every few months we check one number, called HbA1c, to see how the last three months have gone.

It's been longer than it should be. We'd like to bring you back in.

What happens

A nurse from Labas visits you at home, at a time you choose.

Two small tubes of blood. Ten minutes. Results within fifteen minutes while she's still there.

Your GP reviews the numbers the same day and calls to talk them through. No letter in the post. No second appointment.

What we're checking
HbA1c
A three-month average of your blood sugar. Steadier than one reading.
Kidney function
A number that shows how well your kidneys are clearing your blood.
Cholesterol
Four numbers about the fats in your blood. The good kind and the less good kind.
Your GP has reviewed this invitation before we sent it.
Not a good time? Just reply to this email and we'll pause reminders for three months. No explanation needed.

The economics of closing the loop

Delay is expensive.

Every appointment that could have been one, every admission that could have been prevented, every late-stage diagnosis that could have been early. The NHS knows the numbers. Labas GP acts on them.

Labas works with your GP, not instead of them. The GP consultation stays on both sides of every scenario below. What changes is everything that happened around it.

What the system gains back.

Cited from NHS England National Cost Collection, NHS Resolution, Cancer Research UK, and the York Health Economic Consortium.

Ambulance call-out
£459
Average cost for a patient conveyed to A&E by ambulance. Up to 20% of emergency admissions are potentially avoidable with timely primary care resolution.
The King's Fund, NHS Key Facts 2023/24. GIRFT ambulance review.
In practice

For a practice that avoids a single ambulance conveyance, the recovered cost covers four weeks of Labas Starter. UK practices average 30 to 40 999 calls per 10,000 patients each year; Labas is one of several mechanisms that can support earlier primary-care resolution.

Inpatient admission
£1,085 / day
NHS daily tariff for inpatient care. Ambulatory care sensitive admissions (asthma, UTI, heart failure decompensation) typically run three to five days.
NHS Injury Costs Recovery tariff 2024/25. DHSC.
In practice

A practice that avoids one 3-day ACS admission recovers the equivalent of four months of Labas Professional. Same-session diagnostics and structured pre-consultation are two mechanisms among several that support avoidance; the recovered cost accrues to the commissioning system.

Outpatient appointment
£194
Average cost of a new consultant-led outpatient slot, rising to £416 in specialties like neurology. Advice and Guidance diverts 40% of these.
NHS National Cost Collection 2023/24.
In practice

At a conservative 20% A&G diversion rate across a four-partner practice (50 referrals per partner per year), outpatient cost avoided is approximately £3,900 per year. Neurology referrals at £416 shift this upward.

Late-stage diagnosis
+£12,600
Stage 1 to 2 cancer costs £11,200 to treat. Stage 3 to 4 costs £23,800. The £12,600 gap is avoidable when cancers are caught earlier.
BMC Cost Effectiveness and Resource Allocation, 2025.
In practice

Stage migration for a single patient represents a cost delta of £12,600 to the commissioning system. Structured pre-consultation surfaces red-flag symptoms earlier and Care Intelligence supports the recall of patients who have missed follow-up or screening. Both are mechanisms that shift the stage-at-diagnosis distribution; neither causes the shift alone.

Undiagnosed diabetes
£1.5bn
Annual NHS cost attributable to the 850,000 people in the UK with undiagnosed diabetes. Early HbA1c detection prevents downstream complications.
York Health Economic Consortium. Diabetic Medicine journal.
In practice

One in seventy UK adults has undiagnosed diabetes. A 10,000-patient practice therefore holds approximately 100 undetected cases in its list. Care Intelligence surfaces at-risk patients against NICE intervals for GP-initiated review; earlier detection is associated with approximately £1,765 of avoided annual complication cost per patient to the commissioning system.

GP time released
182 hrs / GP / yr
NHS England documented 600 GP hours released annually at a 3.3 WTE practice after restructuring how patients enter the system. That is 182 hours per WTE GP per year.
NHS England case study, Chiswick Health Practice, London. Productive General Practice programme.
In practice

182 hours per full-time GP equals roughly 45 minutes of reclaimed clinical time per working day. Across a four-partner practice that is 728 hours a year. The Chiswick case achieved this through signposting and workflow redesign; structured pre-consultation is a parallel mechanism targeting the same category of recoverable time.
