Forum: Client service models, but not as you know them - Medicare & community health services

Date published: 2009-10-29 16:38:26 

This forum which will explore how community health services are implementing models that support effective care of chronic disease and complex conditions using the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS).

A number of MBS item numbers have the potential to lead to more integrated local approaches to health care provision by providing remuneration for GPs, practice nurses and allied health professionals to work together. Work by community health services to implement new models of care that involve general practice and incorporate appropriate MBS item numbers can also enhance client access to public and private services.
