COORDINATED VETERANS' CARE (CVC) PROGRAM  

 

The Coordinated Veterans’ Care (CVC) Program is a positive step to improve the wellbeing and quality of care for chronically ill Gold Card holders.

The program will pay General Practitioners and nursing providers to coordinate care for Gold Card holders who are at risk of hospitalisation.

Through improved community based care, the program is intended to improve the health of participants by:

  • providing ongoing planned and coordinated care from your GP and a nurse
  • educating and empowering participants to self manage their conditions
  • encouraging the most socially isolated to participate in community activities

 


For GPs and nursing providers:

 

A Guide for General Practice can be downloaded here and provides further information on the CVC Program, including ‘Setting Up Your Practice’, Eligibility’ and ‘How to Claim’.

  • The CVC training Modules are being progressively rolled out over the next nine months. Module 1 entitled “Is Your Service Ready?” is now available.
