Medicare resources: chronic disease support for allied health

Managing patients with chronic conditions often involves a team approach. Medicare offers several resources to support allied health professionals.

• Allied health referrals for GP chronic condition management plans: Find practical guidance on referrals and eligibility via the Services Australia Information Page.

• Medicare chronic disease updates: Access a summary of recent changes impacting allied health providers to stay current with requirements and opportunities.

• Detailed referral information: The MBS Online platform provides comprehensive details about referral processes, item numbers, and billing guidelines.

These resources can help streamline care coordination, improve patient outcomes, and ensure you stay informed about the latest Medicare requirements.
