General Practice in Aged Care Incentive

The objective of the GPACI is to improve access to quality, proactive general practice care for older people who live in aged care homes by incentivising proactive visits, regular, planned reviews and coordinated care planning. Primary care providers and practices registered in MyMedicare will receive incentive payments for providing their MyMedicare registered patients who permanently live in residential aged care homes with care planning services and regular visits. The GPACI also forms part of the Australian Government's Strengthening Medicare Reforms. These reforms respond to the recommendations of the Taskforce and aim to meet the healthcare needs of today while building a stronger Medicare system for future generations.
