If you have a chronic or complex condition, your GP may refer you to physiotherapy under the Chronic Disease Management (CDM) plan. This program provides up to 5 Medicare-funded appointments per calendar year (they don’t roll over, so you’ll need a new referral each year).

 

At our clinic, we bulk bill these consultations — which means there is no out-of-pocket cost to you. To access this, please bring a copy of your GP referral letter and CDM/EPC form to your first appointment.

 

Medicare sessions are designed as shorter check-ins to help you manage your condition. If you would like more time, hands-on treatment, or ongoing care beyond the Medicare limit, our private sessions are available and provide a more comprehensive approach. Please note that Medicare and private health insurance cannot be used for the same consultation.

 

We also work closely with your GP and other health professionals to ensure your treatment is well-coordinated and tailored to your needs.
