The Hippokrates Exchange Programme (HEP) is a Europe-wide initiative allowing associates in training (AiTs) and general practitioners (GPs) in their first five years (First5?) to observe primary care in a number of European countries. Funding support was approved by Erasmus plus, a European body aimed at education, training, youth and sport to support UK participants to undertake a HEP. It is managed by the Junior International Committee of the RCGP - a team of volunteer AiTs/First5?s. The exchange programme aims to provide a unique insight into primary care within another country in order to broaden understanding of other healthcare systems and patient perspectives.
