Are you a GP seeking meaningful, flexible clinical work—one day in clinic, one day remotely—without the full-time grind? Veteran Pathways & Proactive Care is looking for experienced General Practitioners to provide chronic disease management and structured multidisciplinary case conferences for veterans and patients with complex, multi-system health needs.

This role is offered across two structured days each week: an in-clinic day at our Ipswich partner practice and a remote telehealth case-conferencing day. There is some flexibility in scheduling to suit you. This is not a typical locum position. You will provide clinical leadership within integrated Chronic Care Teams, working with allied health professionals and specialists to turn clinical findings into coordinated, evidence-based care plans. The model is structured, purposeful, and truly multidisciplinary—prioritising thorough, evidence-based care over high-volume throughput.

Pay: Guaranteed $240.00 per hour for the first 3 months. After 3 months, you’ll receive 70% of billings.

The role is structured as an independent contractor arrangement, with bulk billing across Medicare and DVA streams. A sign-on bonus and an anniversary incentive are available (details on request). Ipswich is a DPA-eligible location, and GPs with a 19AB exemption—including international medical graduates—are welcome to apply.

Location and working options:
– In-clinic day (Tuesday): an 8-hour clinic day at an established allied-health practice.
– Remote case-conferencing day (Thursday): an 8-hour telehealth case-conferencing session from your home office (a suitable workspace and reliable internet are required).
Days may be adjusted based on your availability.

Key responsibilities:
– Provide comprehensive GP consultations for acute, chronic, and complex conditions within the Chronic Care Team framework (in clinic and/or via telehealth).
– Deliver preventive health assessments, including cardiovascular risk, metabolic health, mental health screening, and lifestyle risk modification.
– Conduct chronic disease management (CDM) reviews and care planning, including GP Management Plans (GPMPs) and Team Care Arrangements (TCAs).
– Lead and participate in scheduled telehealth case conferences as part of multidisciplinary Chronic Care Teams, integrating clinical, pathology, imaging, and allied-health input into coordinated care plans.
– Initiate, review, and manage pathology and imaging investigations; prescribe and manage medications; and refer to allied health, specialists, and community services.
– Ensure clinical safety, appropriate prioritisation, and clear escalation pathways.

Working pattern:
Two structured days per week: an 8-hour in-clinic day on Tuesday at the Ipswich practice (consultations and chronic-disease reviews) and an 8-hour remote case-conferencing session on Thursday (about 22 patient reviews, entirely via telehealth). Days can be adjusted around your availability.

Veteran health and DVA focus:
Veteran Pathways & Proactive Care prioritises veteran health and chronic disease management for both Medicare and DVA-funded patients. You’ll work with veterans who often have complex, multi-system conditions, including chronic pain, mental health comorbidities, musculoskeletal injuries, and long-term effects of military service. Experience with DVA billing, the Coordinated Veterans’ Care (CVC) Program, or veteran-specific health assessments is highly regarded but not required—comprehensive onboarding and support will be provided.

Essential requirements:
– Medical degree (MBBS or equivalent) and current registration with the Medical Board of Australia (AHPRA).
– Fellowship with RACGP or ACRRM (VR GP), or eligibility for a 19AB exemption in a DPA location such as Ipswich (IMGs welcome).
– Experience in chronic disease management, preventive health, and complex care coordination.
– Competence in prescribing, referrals, and managing investigations.
– Strong communication and collaboration skills in multidisciplinary teams.
– For telehealth: a suitable home-office setup and reliable internet.

Desirable:
– Experience with telehealth consultations and digital health platforms.
– Experience in team-based or multidisciplinary care models.
– Interest or experience in veteran health, DVA processes, or the CVC Program.
– Experience with GP Management Plans (GPMPs), Team Care Arrangements (TCAs), and chronic disease care planning.

Additional benefits:
– $240/hr guaranteed for the first 3 months, moving to 70% of billings thereafter.
– Sign-on and anniversary bonuses to support your transition (details discussed at interview).
– A balanced two-day rhythm: one in-clinic day in Ipswich and one remote case-conferencing day, with some flexibility.
– Purpose-driven work improving outcomes for veterans and patients with complex chronic conditions.
– Multidisciplinary collaboration within established Chronic Care Teams, supported by full administrative, nursing, and allied-health resources.
– A structured clinical model focused on thorough, evidence-based care rather than high-volume throughput.
