GMA

Group Medical Appointment

A customized, extended appointment with a patient’s doctor and a behavioral health professional.

Four Key Points

  • GMAs are medical appointments! They are not support groups, classes or therapy groups although support, education and therapy are often experienced by GMA patients.
  • GMAs are provider-driven. It is up to the provider to define the parameters of their group, train others on these and enroll patients.
  • The potential of GMAs are as large or small as your imagination.
  • A GMA is one new tool that works effectively with chronic disease. We need more tools and treatment ideas in order to provide treatment and facilitate the management of chronic disease.
