    How a health fund claim works

    1. 1

      Bring your health fund card

      Bring your card to every appointment, along with your Medicare or DVA card if you have one.

    2. 2

      We claim on the spot

      We process your claim through HICAPS before you leave, so your rebate comes off the bill straight away.

    3. 3

      You pay only the gap

      You pay the difference, and can spread it out with Afterpay, Humm or DentiCare if that helps.

    Your rebate depends on your fund and your level of extras cover. Ask us for a treatment quote and you can check it with your fund before you go ahead.
