Plans should change as you do.
Since 1 July 2025, GP chronic condition management plans have replaced GP Management Plans and Team Care Arrangements. Reviewing your plan keeps your goals and care current, and keeps your allied health referrals valid.
Older plans can be used for allied health until 30 June 2027, and your GP will move you to the new plan at your next review.
