CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT Patient Information February 2014 Page 1 of 2 CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT PATIENT INFORMATION Summary There are two types of plans that can be prepared by a General Practitioner (GP) for CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT (CDM): o GP MANAGEMENT Plan (GPMP); and o Team Care Arrangements (TCAs). If you have a CHRONIC (or terminal) medical condition, your GP may suggest a GPMP. If you also have complex care needs and require treatment from two or more other health care providers, your GP may suggest TCAs as well.
If a provider accepts the Medicare benefit as full payment for the service, there will be no out-of-pocket cost. If not, you will have to pay the difference between the fee charged and the Medicare rebate. If you have both a GPMP and TCAs prepared for you by your GP, you may be eligible for Medicare rebates for certain allied health services.
