Defence Health Claiming Issue – Update

We’re currently seeing some Defence Health claims decline when processed in-clinic. We’ve been advised this is due to a known internal Defence Health issue relating to their provider records. They’re working on a fix, however there’s no confirmed timeframe at this stage.

In the meantime, some claims may need to be submitted manually.
✅ After your appointment, we can provide an itemised invoice/receipt so you can claim directly with Defence Health.

Everything appears to be working correctly on our end. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the practice.

Update: Our Bupa claiming now appears to be working normally. 😀

Have a great day and long weekend — it’s our honour to care for veterans and their families, as well as our wider community.

A few quick updates for today –

1. Some Bupa online systems are playing up this morning, so extras claims for some Bupa members might not go through straight away as they normally would.

If you’re with Bupa and your claim won’t process:
✅ No need to worry — you can usually submit your claim later once their systems are back online
✅ Hang on to your receipt/invoice (and if you misplace it, we can re-send a copy to you)

In the meantime feel free to go ahead and book as normal — we’ll help sort out the admin side afterwards and hopefully this is working well again shortly.

2. Please also note we’ll be closed on the Monday 26th January of this upcoming long weekend.

There are still limited appointments available for today and tomorrow, so if you’re needing some help, be sure to book in before the break. Otherwise, from our team we hope you have a lovely weekend!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the clinic 🎄
The decorations are up, and the place is looking joyful as we head toward the end of the year.

A quick reminder that our last day before the holiday break is Saturday, 20 December. If you’re hoping to come in before then, it’s a good time to book ahead as appointments are steadily filling.

The Christmas season is a busy time for everyone, and our team is working hard to look after our community as best as we can. We understand it can also be a stressful time.

We kindly ask everyone to be patient and respectful with our staff during this period.

We hate to have to make this clear, especially at this time of year, however our team deserves a safe and comfortable workplace, and we won’t tolerate rude or aggressive behaviour. If someone makes our staff feel unsafe or uncomfortable, phone calls may be ended, and anyone behaving poorly may be asked to leave the premises.

Thank you for your kindness and understanding — it really does make a difference. We are here to help you. 🙏

Research Update From Our Clinic

A new editorial has been published in BMJ Open Sport & Exercise Medicine on how exercise can be prescribed more precisely for chronic musculoskeletal pain. We’re happy to share that Dr Nash Anderson was invited to this international paper to contribute as a co-author, offering clinical insight into how research can better support real-world care.

The article explains that exercise is one of the most effective treatments for long-term back pain, neck pain, arthritis and other MSK conditions. But many studies don’t clearly report the details of their exercise programs — things like intensity, frequency, progression and supervision. Without this information, it becomes harder for clinicians to prescribe the right exercise dose for each person.

The authors call for stronger reporting standards so future research can guide truly individualised, safe and effective exercise programs. This matches our own approach in the clinic, where we focus on personalised care, clear guidance and evidence-informed exercise.

If you’d like support with tailored exercise for chronic pain, we’re here to help.
