GPs are to have more time to focus on caring for the most vulnerable patients under a new contract.
The deal with the Welsh government will see the removal of some "unnecessary" bureaucracy, and is part of a plan to reform primary care services.
Changes over the next two years could see a requirement for surgeries to offer more GP appointments and repeat prescription services online.
