Health Programs

Australia’s publicly funded health system includes a range of government-supported care programs designed to assist with ongoing health management, care coordination, and preventive health. These programs are generally funded through Medicare and aim to support structured care in appropriate circumstances.  

​

In general, participation in such programs depends on clinical assessment and professional judgement, and access may vary based on individual circumstances, location, and current policy settings. Funding arrangements and program criteria can change over time.
