Health Insurance Common Question and Answers
On the Spot Claiming (Hicaps) at Health Wise Chiropractic
If you have private health insurance
- Typically, your insurer will provide you with either a physical card or a digital card, which you will need to present at the time of your appointment.
This card serves as proof of your coverage and allows you to access the benefits associated with your plan. It is essential to ensure that you bring this card with you to the desk when you need to pay for your sessions.
At Health Wise Chiropractic, we have chosen to implement the HICAPS eftpos terminal for processing health insurance claims. This modern system allows for a seamless transaction experience, where you can simply swipe or tap your health insurance card at the terminal.
This technology enhances the efficiency of the payment process, ensuring that you spend less time on administrative tasks and more time focusing on your health and recovery.
The staff will then process the claim for you
Once you have presented your health insurance card, our trained staff will take care of the rest. They will process the claim on your behalf, ensuring that you receive the maximum benefit from your insurance plan.
For instance, if your fee for a Chiropractic and massage session is $90, and your health insurance claim pays $40 through the HICAPS terminal, your out-of-pocket expense for that session will be reduced to just $50.
This reduction can make a significant difference in your overall healthcare costs, making it easier to prioritise your health without breaking the bank.
If you are considering getting health insurance, our knowledgeable staff are more than happy to engage in a detailed discussion with you about the various pros and cons associated with different health insurance plans.
They can help clarify any questions you may have regarding coverage options, limitations, and how to choose a plan that best suits your individual needs and circumstances. We are committed to assisting you in navigating the complexities of health insurance, ensuring that you make an informed decision that will benefit your health and financial well-being in the long run.
