What are Chronic Disease Management Plans?

Developed by your GP, these plans provide a structured approach to managing your health.
We'll work with you to:

  • Understand your condition: We'll help you learn about your specific condition and how to manage it effectively.

  • Set realistic goals: We'll work with you to set achievable health goals that improve your quality of life.

  • Create a personalised care plan: Your plan will outline the necessary treatments, medications and lifestyle changes.

  • Coordinate your care: Our Team Care Arrangements (TCAs) facilitate communication between your GP and other healthcare providers involved in your care (e.g. specialists, physiotherapists).

  • Provide ongoing support: Our experienced practice nurses will provide ongoing support and guidance between GP visits.

Who is eligible?

Many patients with chronic conditions are eligible for government-funded chronic disease management plans. This means you may be able to access these care plans with minimal or no out-of-pocket costs.
