Why Veterans Need Multidisciplinary Healthcare
Veterans are more likely than the general population to experience chronic pain and other complex chronic disease. This is why Veterans have the most to benefit from care that combines General Practitioner, Allied and Specialist clinicians. Multidisciplinary healthcare is essential to deliver continuous, whole-of-person care to those experiencing chronic conditions.
Veterans are not like other patients. Service in the Australian Defence Force is hard on the bodies and minds of our servicemen and women, and their healthcare needs are often multifaceted and complex. Treatment plans for Veterans routinely involved multiple clinicians, usually from a variety of disconnected providers.
Why Multidisciplinary Healthcare Is Necessary to Treat Veterans
Successful chronic disease interventions usually involve a coordinated multidisciplinary care team. Complex or chronic conditions benefit from treatment plans that address symptoms, side effects, and root causes. This can require the coordinated input of multiple healthcare disciplines that can include GP, Allied, and Specialist clinicians. Team‑based, multidisciplinary care is associated with many improved outcomes for people with chronic conditions.
The Benefits of Multidisciplinary Healthcare Through A Single Provider
To engage multidisciplinary healthcare without the support of a primary provider, Veterans must manage multiple healthcare providers, chase multiple referrals for diagnostics and treatment, navigate a complex medical system, and liaise with an opaque, overburdened claims process. How can patients focus on treatment and healing, when accessing healthcare is this complicated?

We provide our patients with bespoke care teams and treatment plans that leverage our Australia wide network of clinicians, facilities, and medical providers, all coordinated by a GP.
