Our Chiropractor has seen hundreds of patients with their Chronic Disease Management plans. We communicate with patient’s medical doctors, writing a personalized letter to the General Practitioners (GP), explaining our findings and any therapy and/or recommendations. By doing this, this allows medical doctors to have a better understanding of the patient’s musculo-skeletal condition and any chiropractic suggestions. We find by working together with our patient’s GP’s better clinical outcomes are often reached and great patient satisfaction is achieved.

After your GP has granted an Enhanced Primary Care/CDM it can be faxed directly through to your chiropractor. Alternatively, you can receive the documents from your GP and bring them to your chiropractor. This will all be processed on site immediately for you.

You are only entitled to 5 Enhanced Primary Care visits per calendar year. If you don’t use your 5 visits each year you will forfeit them.

The easiest way to find out if you have used any of your Enhanced Primary Care entitlements is to contact Medicare directly on 132 150.

Xrays are not covered by an CDM plan. The X-Rays may be eligible to be bulk billed directly to Medicare. This excludes CT Scan & MRI referrals as a direct referral from a medical doctor is necessary.
