Outreach in the Outback Rural Health West Ph: outreachintheoutback@ruralhealthwest.com.au BEFORE YOU BEGIN Background, Aims and Objectives of the MOICDP The Medical Outreach Indigenous Chronic Disease Program (MOICDP) is the consolidation of two Indigenous chronic disease focused programs. The two programs that form the MOICDP are - Medical Specialist Outreach Assistance Program Indigenous Chronic Disease Program (MSOAP-ICD) and the Urban Specialist Outreach Assistance Program (USOAP). The MOICDP will build on the foundations of these two programs whilst bringing in line USOAP funding model with the MSOAP-ICD to include a multidisciplinary approach to deliver outreach services. All organisations and individual service providers supported through MOICDP are required to ensure that their services meet the service delivery standards by providing an efficient, effective and quality service to Indigenous patients. MOICDP will focus service delivery on the following chronic conditions: Diabetes Cardiovascular disease Chronic respiratory disease Chronic renal (kidney) disease Cancer The objectives of MOICDP are to: Increase the access to multi-disciplinary care in primary health care settings Increase the range of services offered by visiting health professionals to prevent, detect and manage chronic disease more effectively. Outreach services supported through the MOICDP will improve access to health services for people living in urban, rural, regional and remote Western Australia. They will link with the broader ongoing health reform agenda to develop an integrated health service where local services and outreach services work together to provide communities with the range of services they need to remain healthy.

4 Models of care Outreach: service provision provided to urban, rural, regional, remote and very remote communities by service providers travelling to these locations from a larger town. This is the preferred model under the MOICDP. Hub and spoke: service provision provided both in a central town and the service provider(s) travelling to remote communities. Cluster: service provision to multiple communities from a variety of service providers located in different communities within the cluster. Coordination is paramount in this model to ensure a united approach to care.

5 Funding Agreement and Service Period The funding round is an open competitive round and successful Applicants will be offered a one year Service Provider Agreement which will be required to be signed before receiving any funding. All outreach services supported under the MOICDP will be reviewed annually by Rural Health West and the State based Advisory Forum to ensure that the service continues to meet the needs of the community and the MOICDP. A service not fulfilling the requirements of the MOICDP may be reconsidered and funding may be allocated to an alternative area of need in the relevant region. MOICDP is a Team Approach The MOICDP focuses on a team approach to health care. However it may not be necessary or possible for team members to deliver an outreach service at the same time. Therefore, issues relating to the coordination and continuity of care of patients, sequencing of visits, managing the impact on the community and costs related to travel should be considered when planning services to these communities. The multidisciplinary approach of this measure requires a coordination and case management function. What Services are Eligible for Funding? The MOICDP supports outreach services provided by the following health professionals: Specialist medical services Allied health professionals Nursing services Combination of eligible services (i.e. multi-disciplinary team) Outreach GP services Funding is also available for: Coordination and administration of these services Cultural awareness and safety training for participating service providers Upskilling / training Professional support that is associated with outreach services Program administration costs for the successful applicant What Services are Not Eligible for Funding: Elective cosmetic surgery Stand alone training Research activities Alternative health services for example Chinese Medicine, reflexology Capital expenditure for health service delivery Purchase of medical equipment Purchase or leasing of motor vehicle Salaries for health professionals Hospital services

9 3. BILLING 3a. Can the health professionals claim against the Medicare Benefits Schedule? Under exceptional circumstances it is accepted that a claim against the Medicare Benefits Schedule is not possible. If a health professional is unable to claim against the Medicare Benefits Schedule or charge patients private fees then a workforce support payment may be paid.

What services in this discipline are already in the community and/or the region? What gaps have been identified? Through your consultation process, you should identify gaps in health care in the targeted community and/or region and your proposal should demonstrate how your service will positively effect this need. Outreach in the Outback has also completed a gap and equity analysis for each region which is available on our website.

Practical points to consider might be the role of different organisations or individuals to assist with: Facilities for consultations and telemedicine sessions if applicable; Referrals; Advertising planned visits to the community; Coordinating patient travel; Holding patient records or utilising existing patient management systems; and Ensuring follow ups are completed if required. We encourage you talk with key stakeholders in the community and/or region including individual Aboriginal Medical Services, regional WA Country Health Service, Medicare Locals and Regional Aboriginal Health Planning Forums.

A Workforce Support Payment may be considered only when other payment options have been exhausted. A Workforce Support Payment may be paid in circumstances where access to MBS payments cannot be guaranteed and/or patient compliance with appointments is uncertain. Visiting health professionals who accept a workforce support payment will be precluded from claiming any MBS payment for the delivery of services to the designated outreach location(s).

If endorsed, they are paid per consultation session. For example, if the visiting health professional conducts 2x 4hr sessions over a 3 day visit, the payment would be for those two sessions.

Salary costs of backfilling salaried medical staff who provide approved outreach services will be covered. Evidence of the position being backfilled is required through the Service Activity Report.
