Mental Health Skills Training
If you are an Australian GP, you are able to access the additional mental health MBS item numbers (2715 and 2717) by completing the Mental Health Skills Training (Modular Pathway), which requires both the Mental Health Skills Training Core Module and one Clinical Enhancement Module to be completed. Please make sure that you have entered your RACGP or ACRRM registration number in your ThinkGP profile as this is required to validate your completions. Once you have completed the two activities, please ensure your Medicare provider number is registered with your college to ensure the MBS access is allocated correctly. Please see instructions for RACGP members here, and ACRRM members should directly contact their college. If you have any queries or issues regarding this process, please email the GPMHSC at gpmhsc@racgp.org.au or call (03) 8699 0556. |
