Chronic Disease

Management

As Australians increasingly grapple with the debilitating challenges of chronic conditions, the experienced TLC team offer unwavering support and specialised, tailored care. TLC’s dedicated team of healthcare professionals understand the enduring effect and ongoing impact that chronic health conditions can have, and are committed to prioritising your long-term health and wellbeing.

Chronic conditions, which persist for six months or longer, typically require specialised attention and a multidisciplinary approach to management. Through our Chronic Disease Management (CDM) program – formerly known as Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) – we provide coordinated care that encompasses the expertise of general practitioners and multiple allied health professionals. Examples of chronic conditions include:

• Arthritis
• Asthma
• Cancer
• Cardiovascular disease
• Diabetes
• Mental health conditions (anxiety, depression, etc)
• Musculoskeletal conditions
• Obesity
• Stroke

Under a Chronic Disease Management Plan determined by a general practitioner, eligible patients can access Medicare rebates for specific allied health services, ensuring that sustained health treatment is within reach.
