Claiming Health Insurance for Orthotics
We have agreements with many Health Insurance companies in Australia, the majority of patients should be able to claim with our receipt which is issued at the completion of the manufacture of your custom made orthotic.
Providing that you have coverage for Orthotics, private health normally falls into three categories.
- Simply present your receipt to your health insurance company for a rebate using our provider number, some companies may require you to see our podiatrist to claim. BUPA (please note extra charges are payable).
- You may require a referral or prescription from a GP, Physiotherapist, Chiropractor for a custom made Orthotic. We recommend that the referral just requests a Custom Made Orthotic.
