Chronic Disease Management

Anyone with a ‘chronic medical condition’ which is a condition that has been, or is likely to be present for at least 6 months or is terminal can have a GP Management Plan in place.

If you have a chronic medical condition, your doctor may suggest a GP Management Plan.

If you need treatment from two or more health professionals, your doctor may also put Team Care Arrangements in place for you.

A Team Care Arrangement plan lets your doctor work with, and refer you to, at least two other health professionals who will provide treatment or services to you.

You may be eligible for Medicare benefits for specific allied health services if your doctor prepares both types of plans for you.
