Extras costs explained
Extras cover gives you money back for non-hospital services such as dental, physio, optical and more.
The amount of money you can claim back depends on the level of cover you have. Generally speaking, the higher the level of cover, the higher your annual limit and higher the percentage you can claim back. Which means more money back in your pocket.
- 100% back on at least one dental check-up and clean each year at a Members’ Choice or Members’ Choice Advantage provider.=
- 100% back on optical items at all recognised providers up to annual limits. Excludes Healthy Living Extras.±
- Access to Members’ Choice, one of the largest health provider networks in Australia, covering more than 12,000 providers. We’ve set maximum prices that these providers can charge, so you’ll avoid any surprises when the bill arrives.
With a Members' Choice provider, you'll receive a fixed % back on services, up to your annual limits.
If your extras provider isn't part of our Members' Choice network don't worry. As long as they're a Medibank recognised provider, we'll still pay a fixed amount for each service or item, up to your annual limits.
