If you are an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander
living in the Sunshine Coast and Gympie Districts and you need to
see a doctor, dentist, podiatrist, counsellor, physiotherapist, nutritionist/dietician or allied health worker, please contact an Approved Referrer in your local
area.
They will discuss with you what Service Providers
are available and which area would be most suitable to your needs eg Caloundra,
Maroochydore, Nambour, Gympie, Hinterland, Noosa, Rainbow Beach or Tin
Can Bay.
You decide where you want to go and the referrer
will make a referral through NCACCH for you. If approved, NCACCH
will contact the Service Provider so that you are able to proceed with your appointment.
NCACCH will then be sent the account for the
service provided and we will pay that account on your behalf!
There will obviously be some limits on what
an individual person can receive during any 12 month period.
Naturally, we cannot fund major dental work
such as dentures or root canals etc.
We must only "fill the gaps" identified
in Indigenous Health the best we can.
