What Is a Care Plan?
A Care Plan—specifically, a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (GPCCMP)—is a structured, GP‑led plan designed to support patients with chronic or complex medical conditions.
It enables access to Medicare‑subsidised allied health services.

Eligibility & Access
* You must have a chronic health condition lasting (or expected to last) six months or longer, as determined by your GP (e.g., diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, osteoporosis, asthma).

* Your GP issues a care plan (GPCCMP), which allows you to access subsidised allied health services—up to five visits per calendar year.

* These visits can be with one or multiple allied health providers (such as physiotherapists, podiatrists, dietitians, occupational therapists) depending on your needs and GP’s referrals.

Referral Process
* Your GP provides the referral specifying the required allied health service type
* Referrals typically remain valid for up to 12 months.

Your Health Matters — Don’t Let Life Get in the Way

Life gets busy, but your health should always be a priority. Regular GP check-ups are a simple yet powerful way to stay ahead of potential health issues. They're not just for when you're feeling unwell — they’re key to early detection and long-term wellbeing.

What to Expect During a General Check-Up:
Blood pressure and heart rate assessment
Weight and Body Mass Index (BMI) review
Blood tests (including cholesterol and blood sugar levels)
Lifestyle discussion (diet, exercise, stress, sleep)
Review of family medical history and personal risk factors

How Often Should You Visit Your GP?
Even if you feel healthy, it’s wise to schedule a check-up every 12 months — or more frequently if you manage an ongoing condition.

Prioritise Prevention. Protect Your Future.
Taking care of your health today can help prevent more serious problems tomorrow.

Lest We Forget

Today, we pause to honour the courage, sacrifice, and spirit of the ANZACs—those who served and continue to serve for our freedom.

Their bravery and resilience remind us of the power of unity and the true meaning of service.

We remember them.
We thank them.
