GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (GPCCMP)

A GP Chronic Care Management Plan (GPCCMP) is a comprehensive document that details a patient's chronic conditions, care goals, treatment actions, necessary referrals, and a review schedule. It is designed to ensure coordinated, ongoing care for patients with long-term health conditions. Eligibility includes those with chronic conditions expected to last six months or more, or individuals with a terminal illness. By outlining a clear path for treatment and follow-up, the GPCCMP supports both patients and healthcare providers in managing complex health needs, improving patient outcomes, and fostering proactive, patient-centred care.
