You spoke, we listened
When you said you wanted better value, personalised support and more choice, we listened. We've been working with doctors, experts in medical technology and our members to make health insurance better. Discover the recent changes we've made below, inspired by you.
100% back on dental check-ups twice a year on eligible extras1
With eligible extras cover you get 100% back on up to two check-ups each year at a Members’ Choice Advantage Dentist (including bitewing x-rays where clinically required).1
Hospital Assist
Beyond just helping to pay towards hospital bills, we’re looking at ways to make going to hospital easier. The Hospital Assist program includes a Health Concierge phone service, a Digital Concierge for online assistance, a 24/7 Advice Line and Patient Reported Experience surveys (PREMS).
Medibank at Home
We know that treatments like chemotherapy and dialysis are tough. That’s why we developed Medibank at Home, so our members can access healthcare on their terms. The trial program — which we’re hoping to roll out nationally — allows eligible members to receive treatment for chemo and dialysis from the comfort of their own home.

Accident cover boost
We know that accidents happen. And when they do, recovery should be top priority. That's why if you have an Accident, you’ll get the benefits of our top level hospital cover, no matter what level of hospital cover you have.~
Hospital Experience Scores
To improve our members stays in hospital, we introduced the Patient Reported Experience Measures Survey (PREMS). The survey asked people to rate their hospital experience — from staff interaction to cleanliness. The feedback helped us build a tool, so that you can search for hospitals across Australia and discover how they were rated.
My Medibank app
We made it simple for our members to stay on top of their cover with the MyMedibank App. Easily check your limits, make a claim and find a Members’ Choice provider anywhere, anytime. And now, you can estimate your benefits and any gap for your extras claims, so you’ll know how much you could get back before leaving the house.
24/7 Medibank Nurse
We know that it’s important to access healthcare anywhere, anytime. That’s why our members with hospital cover can always speak with a Medibank nurse, 24/7. Whether it’s a question about how to manage your symptoms or when you should see a doctor, day or night, our nurses are available on 1800 644 325 for round-the-clock health advice.#

From 1 April 2019, the federal government introduced a range of health insurance reforms, to make it easier for all Australians to better understand health insurance. And we’ve welcomed these changes by getting on the front foot. Depending on your level of cover, you may have been affected by some of these changes. But don’t worry, we’re here to help make the transition as smooth as possible. Find out more.
