Build a better way to practice medicine in aged care
In a changing system, GPAC‑N is leading the way with a model that is future-focused, human-centered, and GP-led. We're rebuilding how GPs support aged care from the ground up. We offer flexible, well-supported, and financially sustainable engagements without the admin, fragmentation, or burnout.
Whether you’re a…
GP seeking flexibility, autonomy, and sustainable income
Practice looking to build and scale a structured aged care service
Nurse or clinician wanting meaningful, team-based care
Healthcare professional frustrated by broken systems and inefficiency
Someone looking to use your skills in purpose-driven work that truly matters
Are you a practice?
Are you a general practice looking to grow your aged-care footprint? Or perhaps you want to streamline your in-clinic operations and reduce the workload, compliance, and coordination that comes with RACF care?
GPAC-N partners with practices across Australia to expand aged-care capability and ensure sustainable, high-quality services for residential facilities. Our partnership model combines structured GP and nurse integration with shared technology, supported incentive management, and RACGP Accreditation quality frameworks, so your team can focus on care, not administration.
By collaborating with GPAC-N, practices can maintain their independence while gaining the scale, systems, and support of a national network. Whether you’re an established clinic or exploring how to engage with aged-care work for the first time, we’ll help align your business model with RACF opportunities in a way that’s practical, compliant, and financially beneficial.
- Step-by-step guidance on registering for utlising incentive programs
- Dedicated nursing and administrative support to reduce your internal overhead
- Leave cover from network GPs and NPs within GPAC-N
- Shared systems for accreditation, governance, compliance, and billing support
- Tailored reporting, patient tracking, and incentive optimisation tools
GPAC-N makes aged-care participation simpler, more structured, and more rewarding — for both your practice and your doctors.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is GPAC-N different from traditional RACF GP work?
Traditional RACF work is often fragmented, reactive, and heavily reliant on individual effort.
GPAC-N provides a structured, team-based model with built-in support, coordination, and continuity—making aged care work more reliable, sustainable, and clinically effective.
Traditional model vs GPAC-N
| Traditional RACF GP Work | GPAC-N |
|---|---|
| Ad hoc, unstructured | Coordinated, systemised |
| Admin-heavy | Fully supported |
| GP led without supports | GP led with team and supports |
| Financially inconsistent | Structured, optimised billing |
-
No. GPAC-N partners with practices to co-support GPs in delivering RACF care, so it becomes a structured and sustainable part of your work, not an afterthought.
You’ll have access to dedicated, specialised administrative and nursing support for your aged care work. We already partner with a number of practices to strengthen and support their GPs in RACFs. For more information about this model see information about Practice Partners.
-
Yes. You can bring your existing RACF patients with you, and we will support you in continuing your current visiting arrangements.
Our model is designed to strengthen and support your existing relationships, not replace them.
-
For GPs, NPs and most providers, remuneration is typically based on a percentage of billings.
For nurses (RN/EN), we operate a flexible contracting model where you can nominate your rates for specific work and tasks.
Support staff are directly employed by GPAC-N.
-
Our provider arrangements are not employment.
You engage GPAC-N for support services (administration, coordination, billing, etc.), and we invoice monthly for those services.
-
How long is a piece of string?
This depends on your location, availability, and goals. If you’re new to RACF work, we encourage you to reach out so we can explore opportunities in your area.There are generally two ways to build your RACF patient base:
Bulk transfer – when a GP exits a facility and their patient cohort becomes available
Incremental growth – starting with a small number of residents and gradually increasing over time (e.g. adding 2–3 patients per week)
We’ll work with you to find the approach that best suits your circumstance.
-
Working with GPAC-N means being part of a coordinated, supportive network while maintaining your independence.
You’ll have access to dedicated administrative, nursing, and coordination support, allowing you to focus on delivering high-quality care without the usual fragmentation and workload pressures.
Most clinicians find they are able to provide more consistent, meaningful care, while working in a more sustainable and structured way.
-
GPAC-N provides end-to-end support across your aged care work, including:
RACF coordination and scheduling
Administrative and compliance support
Billing, Medicare, and MyMedicare management
Nursing support (e.g. care planning, vaccinations, clinical assistance)
Leave coverage and continuity planning
This allows you to work within a structured system, without having to manage everything yourself.
