👨🏻‍⚕️MEDICARE SUBSIDISING CHIROPRACTIC APPOINTMENTS AT HBC👨🏻‍⚕️

Did you know that Medicare has a scheme to help eligible patients access subsidised Allied Health appointments* (including Chiropractic) through their GP?! Let us tell you a bit about the GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (GPCCMP).

🔹What is it?🔹
A GPCCMP is a government funded healthcare scheme through Medicare, providing eligible patients with up to five subsidised Allied Health appointments per calendar year^. This allows patients to access a variety of Allied Health services including Chiropractic, at a heavily subsidised rate with a small gap payment to cover the remaining costs (currently Medicare covers $61.80 of your appointment fees!). This new GPCCMP scheme is a refreshed version of the previous Team Care Arrangement that existed prior to July 1st 2025.

🔹Eligibility🔹
As of July 1st 2025 eligibility criteria and patient control over their management plan has been improved, allowing greater access to Allied Health services and increased patient control. Current eligibility criteria states patients must have a chronic or terminal condition (a condition lasting for 6 months or more) that requires a structured and multidisciplinary approach to care e.g. osteoarthritis, chronic neck and low back pain, tendinopathies, chronic headaches and other chronic conditions may be eligible under this scheme.

*Remedial massage is NOT an eligible service under this scheme
^Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples may be eligible for additional follow up visits outside of the standard GPCCMP 5 visits per calendar year. Be sure to check with your GP if this applies to you.
