It’s Doctor Time! is a campaign by Inclusion Australia to encourage more people with intellectual disability to have a Medicare-supported Annual Health Assessment. GPs sometimes call these Annual Health Assessments.
As a GP, practice staff or other medical professional you can support people with intellectual disability to get their yearly health check.
As part of the It’s Doctor Time! campaign, we have made the following resources for General Practice staff and other medical professionals treating people with intellectual disability.
