Pen CS Pty Ltd (PENCS) have developed Topbar as an adjunct to the GP Clinical Desktop System to deliver useful tools and decision support information for the primary care sector at the point of care.
Topbar is designed to provide prompts and relevant information to all clinic staff based on the patients being seen and also those who are on the waiting list for the day. The user interface is minimalistic and allows the users to focus on the patient details and clinical information but provides important additional tools and information. Complete and accurate patient records are a key component of primary health care and Topbar assists all staff with this important aim.
This document assumes that Topbar has been installed and the user has been registered. All screen shots were done on Windows 7 using Best Practice as clinical system.


Topbar requires you to have a compatible clinical billing system installed if you want to use the MBS prompt functionality:

  • PracSoft
  • BP Management


The details of your clinical billing system are configured during the installation and can be changed by repeating the installation process if needed.
