Team Care Arrangements Management System

Townsville General Practice Network This is where I live

Team Care Arrangements Process GP completes GP Management Plan GP completes TCA referral with up to 5 visits to 2 Health Service Providers in a 12 month period GP faxes copy of TCA to Allied Health Providers and gives the patient a copy GP asks AHPs for consent to be part of the TCA by phone or fax AHPs agree to be part of TCA – by phone or faxback GP Bills a MBS Item no: 721 and 723 for GP Management Plan and TCA. Patient go to appointment at AHPs AHP bills for appointment AHP sends feedback to GP GP reviews TCA in a timely fashion
