Why these numbers are trustworthy
Uses transparent formulas, your clinic inputs, and a conservative default of 3 minutes saved per consult. Lyrebird research links should be reviewed before publishing any specific external claims.
How these estimates are calculated
Time saved per GP per day = patients per day × minutes saved per patient ÷ 60. Annual hours = weekly hours × 48 weeks. Clinic annual value = clinic annual hours × estimated value of GP time. Net annual value = financial value minus annual Lyrebird cost. Payback = annual cost ÷ monthly value created. Optional document savings are included only when the document panel is open.
