Healthcare assessment & care planning

Health Assessments

At BMCOL we offer comprehensive and individualised GP Management Plans which are
completed by a GP for patients diagnosed with a chronic health condition. Some care plan
patients are eligible for referrals to allied health providers at a subsidised cost. We also offer health assessments for over 75’s, asthma plans, healthy heart checks, anaphylaxis action plans and diabetes reviews. Please ask your doctor if you are eligible for a care plan.

• Heart disease risk assessment every 2 years
• Blood pressure check every 2 years
• Cholesterol and lipids check every year
• Blood glucose test every year
• Mammogram every 2 years (women)
• Skin cancer checks

• Bowel cancer check every 2 years
• Osteoporosis risk assessment every year
• Flu vaccination every year
• Dental check-up every year
• Falls assessment (over 65)
• Hearing test every year (over 65)
• Eye test every 2 years, and every year on reaching age 65
