Preparing a GP eating-disorder treatment and management plan


Under new Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) item numbers for eating disorders, an eating-disorder treatment and management plan (EDP) is required for eligible patients. You’ll need to develop an EDP with your patients following a comprehensive physical and mental assessment.

Visit MBS online for more information on MBS item numbers 90250, 90251, 90252 and 90253, including explanatory notes on preparing an EDP.

The National Eating Disorders Collaboration has developed a range of factsheets, resources and an EDP template to help you assess, treat and refer patients with an eating disorder.
