Changes to the Medicare Benefits Schedule items for chronic disease management take effect early in the 2025-26 financial year.
The changes – the first since 2005 – enable a patient-centred approach to continuity of care for people living with a chronic condition, reducing the administrative burden on general practice.
Our self-directed practice activation resources provide practical ideas structured around the foundations of the reforms. They are designed to identify your current structures regarding chronic condition management and MyMedicare patient registration, and assist you in upskilling and accelerating your approach.
