Tips for Managing the General Practice in Aged Care Incentive (GPACI):

The relationship between the practice, patient, and Responsible Provider is key to GPACI eligibility. Disrupting any of these links can affect payments.

If a Responsible Provider changes, ensure the previous relationship remains in the patient’s MyMedicare profile—deleting it can impact past payments.

Note: The Responsible Provider may differ from the patient’s Preferred GP (e.g. a registrar may provide care in a RACH).
