Chronic Disease Management Plans

If you have a chronic medical condition, and need to see specialists or allied health professionals, then speak to your doctor about whether you may be eligible for a government-funded personalised plan to help you manage your condition, including six-monthly GP review, and government-subsidised allied health appointments (eg physiotherapy, podiatry, dietitian, psychology).

Conditions that may be eligible for a GP Management Plan include (though are not limited to):

• Diabetes

• Asthma

• Arthritis

• Osteoporosis

• Cancer

• Chronic bowel conditions
