General Practice in Aged Care Incentive has arrived

 

From 1 July 2024, eligible providers and practices registered with MyMedicare can receive quarterly incentive payments for meeting the MyMedicare General Practice in Aged Care Incentive (GPACI) eligibility and servicing requirements.  This incentive supports older people living in residential aged care homes to receive quality primary care services from their regular provider and practice.

The timeline above outlines key dates to be aware of in the transition from the Practice Incentives Program GP Aged Care Access Incentive to the MyMedicare GPACI.

For further information regarding eligibility and servicing requirements, visit the new webpage and factsheet on the DHAC website.
