Immunisations
Immunisation protects against a range of preventable diseases and infections. Childhood immunisations, catch up immunisations, travel immunisations and occupational health immunisations are amongst the range of immunisations provided.
Chronic Disease Management
Some illness is managed rather than cured.
Diabetes, Chronic Pain, Chronic HIV infection are examples of these. They are defined as being complex, usually affecting different body systems at once. They generally require monitoring and ongoing followup. Patients are usually on medication and/or treatment programs.
These illnesses require a number of visits to the Doctor over a 12 month cycle.
Medicare funds special consultations with your Doctor so that they can formulate a GP management plan. This plan is reviewed as needed. Our Nursing Staff assist with the formulation and implementation of these plans.
Under this plan you may be eligible for Medicare rebates for services provided by other health care providers such as Physiotherapy, Osteopathy, Exercise Physiology, Dietetics. Medicare rebates are available for five visits annually.
Ask your Doctor if you think this may apply to you.
