Private Health Cover

Check Your Private Health Insurance for Orthodontic Rebates!

We’re here to help you navigate your private health insurance so you can make the most of your benefits! If you have orthodontic cover, you might be eligible for a rebate to help with the costs of your treatment.

Before your orthodontic consultation, we recommend asking your health fund the following questions:

 

  1. Is there a lifetime limit for orthodontics?
  2. What is my annual limit for orthodontic claims?
  3. Do I need to submit my claim before the end of the financial year?
  4. Is there a deadline for claiming before the end of the calendar year?

Estimated Refunds

In addition to the above questions, your health fund may be able to provide an estimated refund based on specific orthodontic item numbers. Here are some you might need:

  • 014 – Child Consultation
  • 015 – Adult Consultation
  • 036 – Lateral Cephalometric X-ray (Lat Ceph)
  • 037 – Orthopantomogram (OPG)
  • 072 – Intraoral Photos
  • 073 – Extraoral Photos
  • 881 – Braces (Upper and Lower)
  • 825 x 2 – Invisalign® Treatment

We’re here to guide you through the process and ensure you have all the information you need to make the best decision for your smile!
