Questions
Care plan questions.
What is a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan?
A structured, Medicare-funded appointment for people with a chronic condition. Your GP writes down the condition, what is being monitored, the goals, who else is involved and when it will be reviewed. You get a copy.
Am I eligible?
It is for people with a chronic or terminal medical condition — generally one present, or likely to be present, for at least six months. Your GP will confirm whether you meet the criteria.
Does it get me subsidised allied health?
A GP Chronic Condition Management Plan gives you up to five individual Medicare-subsidised allied health services each calendar year, or ten for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients, on referral from your GP. Many providers charge a gap on top of the rebate, so ask them directly.
Is it bulk billed?
Yes, where you meet the Medicare criteria and hold a valid Medicare card.
How long is the appointment?
Longer than a standard consult. Tell reception it is for a care plan so enough time is set aside.
