General Practice licensing fees

Copyright of ICPC-2 PLUS is held by the University of Sydney.

The Family Medicine Research Centre (FMRC) is the authorised distributor of ICPC-2 in Australia and the Pacific Basin in collaboration with the World Organisation of Family Doctors (Wonca).

Developers

No charge is made to Developers who take out an ICPC-2 PLUS Developers licence. However, once the terminology has been installed and can be used for either clinical or research purposes, a separate licence must be signed (End User licence) by all users. Charges are associated with this licence (see End User section below).

 

End Users

Current licensing fees for ICPC-2 PLUS in Australia include 2 components:

* the payment of a "one off" Wonca fee for the lifelong use of ICPC-2, and

* an annual ICPC-2 PLUS site licence fee.

First year licensing fees

Charges for the use of ICPC-2 PLUS in the first year include a "one off" user fee for the life long use of ICPC-2 set by the World Organisation of Family Doctors (Wonca), and an annual site licence fee.

Wonca fees are payable to Family Medicine Research Centre. The FMRC passes the total payment of the "one off" fee to Wonca at regular intervals. The monies received by Wonca will assist the Classification Committee in continuing its work in further developing classification systems for general practice. This Wonca fee is not GST taxable.
