From 1 July 2025, the old GP Management Plan (item 721) and Team Care Arrangement (item 723) were replaced by a single GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (item 965). The review item changed from 732 to 967.
The patient still receives up to 5 allied health visits per calendar year. The core structure is similar — the main change is the item numbers and administrative simplification. If you had an existing 721/723 before July 2025, it remains valid and can be reviewed under item 967.
The 5 Medicare-subsidised allied health visits can be used for: audiology, chiropractic, diabetes education, dietetics, exercise physiology, mental health work, occupational therapy, osteopathy, physiotherapy, podiatry, psychology, and speech pathology. Aboriginal health workers and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health practitioners are also included.
Important: The 5 visits are shared across ALL disciplines. If you use 3 visits for physio, you have 2 remaining for everything else. You cannot get 5 per provider.
Each appointment must be in person (not telehealth for this Medicare item), at least 20 minutes, and one-on-one (not a group session).
Your GP refers you to each specific provider. The allied health provider must be registered with Medicare.
Your referral is valid for the timeframe your GP wrote on it. If your GP didn't write a specific end date, the referral is automatically valid for 18 months from the date of your first visit under that referral.
Important: the 18 months counts from your first service — not from the date the referral was written. So a referral can sit unused for some time before the clock starts.
After the first visit, your allied health provider must send a written report back to your GP. They send another report after the last visit, or more often if needed. This keeps your GP informed about your treatment.
If your referral has expired and you still have visits remaining in your calendar year, ask your GP for a new referral — you don't usually need a whole new care plan, just a fresh referral.
Yes — until 30 June 2027. If you had a GP Management Plan (item 721) or Team Care Arrangement (item 723) in place before 1 July 2025, you can continue to access allied health services consistent with those plans until that date.
From 1 July 2027, a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (item 965) will be required for ongoing access to subsidised allied health services. Most GPs will transition you over at a routine review well before then — no need to rush.
A review (item 967) can be done at least 3 months after the plan was prepared or last reviewed. Most GPs recommend reviewing every 6–12 months, or sooner if your condition changes.
At the review, your GP will assess your progress, update goals, adjust medications if needed, and renew referrals for allied health if required. If you've used all 5 visits and the calendar year hasn't reset, you'll need to wait until 1 January for new visits.
You can request a review at any time if you feel your plan needs updating.
No. Unused allied health visits do not roll over. You get 5 visits per calendar year. On 1 January, the counter resets to 5 — regardless of how many you used last year. If you used 2 of 5 in 2025, the remaining 3 are lost. You start fresh with 5 in 2026.
Tip: If it's October and you still have visits left, use them before December — on 1 January they're gone.
Do I need a new care plan each year? No. Your existing 965 CCMP remains valid. But your GP should review it (item 967) and renew allied health referrals for the new year. Book a review in January to sort this early.
