bwatt99 Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 i have been here 5 weeks now and i still not got ambulance cover etc,i have been getting mixed replies on should and should not private health etc,im allowed upto a year where if i dont take it by then i pay 2% on top for each year over 31 so thats could to be a lot for me. I have a wife and 11 month old girl and myself so for now am just looking to get extras for now,and down the line add hospital cover.As by then i will know maybe what i earn and i believe its worth having due to tax reasons but for now i just looking for extras. Problem is looking at the many policys and there are many its hard to pick one,are they worth it,or would ambulance cover be enough and just stick money away each month for things like this. Is there a policy where its very good on dental,i think most are after that sort of policy but maybe there is not one that pays well to dental work as i dont think much of the other extras they offer. Also like my girl do kids get covered by school or due to there age etc and if so what age up,meaning no charges to them or are they also charged just like us. I sure need to get at least ambulance cover,if i dont take extras as would not like to pay the fee for it not having it. Also as there is a waiting period for some stuff on these extras policy,if say a years time i wanted to get hospital cover can that be added to the policy and not have to start over again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 We're with medibank private and have full cover. Optical tests are bulk billed but you will pay for glasses (adults & Children) - we get a rebate with medibank. My son goes to the school dentist but when he chipped a tooth and needed an emergency repair we had to take him to the private dentist - again got rebate from medibank but still over $150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
