The 715 Aboriginal Health Assessment is an important yearly medical appointment that provides a comprehensive health assessment and plan for follow-up care.

A 715 Aboriginal Health Assessment at Gandangara Health Service includes a thorough assessment of the patient’s physical, psychological and social wellbeing. Key elements include:

• information collection
• overall assessment of the patient
• recommending appropriate follow up care
• advice and information to the patient
• a record of the assessment
• providing the patient, or their carer, with a copy of the assessment and follow up plan.

At Gandangara a Practice Nurse or Aboriginal Health Practitioner assists with initial tests and medical history. A General Practitioner delivers the final assessment and recommends appropriate follow up care.

A 715 Aboriginal Health Assessment takes about 45 minutes and is fully covered by Medicare.
