The RACGP has welcomed medical board changes aimed at reducing frivolous notifications after a poll suggested 80% of GPs had been on the wrong side of such a complaint. 

The college poll of 1290 GPs asked whether they felt they had been subjected to a vexatious complaint, with four out of five saying yes.
