Integrated Care Pathway – Musculoskeletal (ICP-MSK)
About ICP
The Escalated Care Pathway (ECP) has now come to a conclusion, and we can no longer accept referrals into the programme, we will continue to support clients until they are recovered. ECP is being replaced by Integrated Care Pathway.

The Integrated Care Pathway is ACC’s innovative way of managing people with injuries that require coordinated rehabilitation services. Habit Health provides the platform for the care team (physios, specialists, return-to-work therapists and health navigators) to see patients under this contract and coordinate all the moving parts.
The inclusion criteria for ICP is different from ECP and is outlined below.
Following our team receiving a referral we will contact the patient and book them in for an initial triage.
- Initial Triage Assessment: comprehensive MSK Triage Assessment undertaken by a Senior Physiotherapist and Specialist.
- Recovery Plan: the rehabilitation then team develops the recovery plan
- Health Navigation: we provide a dedicated Health Navigator to coordinate with services and providers.
- Recovery and Testing: we support the collection of the PREMS, PROMS and other rehabilitation outcomes.
