Are you a Medibank member looking for a dentist in Hervey Bay?
Lakeside Dental Spa welcomes Medibank members and participates in Medibank’s dental provider network, helping eligible members make better use of their Extras cover when they visit the dentist.
Medibank’s Members’ Choice network includes participating healthcare providers that have arrangements with Medibank.
For dental care, Medibank states that Members’ Choice providers offer capped prices and generally lower out-of-pocket costs than non-Members’ Choice providers.
The amount you receive back depends on the Medibank Extras policy you hold, the dental treatment you receive and your applicable limits.
Medibank has different types of provider arrangements and different Extras products, so it is important to check the benefits that apply specifically to your membership.
Depending on the Extras cover you hold, Medibank may provide benefits towards eligible general and, on some policies, major dental services.
The exact amount you receive back will vary according to your policy.
For larger treatments, our team can provide a detailed treatment plan containing the relevant dental item numbers. This allows you to contact Medibank before commencing treatment and obtain information about your expected benefit and potential out-of-pocket expenses.
Eligible Medibank dental claims can generally be processed electronically through HICAPS at Lakeside Dental Spa.
Rather than paying the full treatment fee and submitting a claim afterwards, your eligible Medibank benefit can be processed at the practice, leaving you to pay the remaining balance.
Health insurance can be confusing, particularly because different Medibank policies can provide different benefits.
Before your appointment, you can check your cover and remaining Extras limits through Medibank. For planned treatment, you can also use the dental item numbers supplied in your treatment plan to obtain a more accurate indication of what Medibank may pay.
