Chronic Disease Management & Care Coordination
If you have a long-term health condition lasting six months or more, you may be eligible for a Chronic Disease Management (CDM) Plan. These plans can be arranged by independent general practitioners consulting at Sandy Hill Medical Centre.
What is a Care Plan? A Care Plan is a personalised health management plan created in collaboration with your GP. It may include referrals to up to five allied health providers (e.g. physiotherapists, dietitians, psychologists) and aims to provide coordinated, holistic support.
Many of these services are subsidised by Medicare.
Benefits include:
- Comprehensive, whole-person care
- Access to a team of allied health providers
- Ongoing monitoring by your GP
- No out-of-pocket costs for eligible Medicare-subsidised services
How to get started: Book a consultation with an independent GP to discuss your eligibility and begin your Care Plan.
