Extras 90 Boost must be taken with an eligible hospital cover of your choice

Percentage back at any recognised extras provider

When you visit a recognised extras provider for eligible services, you'll get 90% of the charge back (subject to annual limits), and any dependants on the policy will get 100% back at any Members’ Choice provider (subject to annual limits)2. You will also get 100% back on your first consultation at a Members’ Choice provider each year for one of the following services – physiotherapy, chiropractic, remedial massage, acupuncture or podiatry.3.

You can access greater value by visiting a Members' Choice extras provider for discounted products and services. Medibank has negotiated with many healthcare professionals on your behalf, so you won't be charged more than the agreed price.

Limits and Benefits

Benefits are subject to limits, including annual, lifetime and maximum benefit limits. An annual limit is the maximum amount we'll pay for items or services or groups of items or services in a calendar year.

A lifetime limit is the maximum cumulative benefit we pay over your lifetime towards an item or service (e.g. orthodontics). When you reach this limit, you can no longer claim that benefit again, even if you change your cover.

The benefit we pay for a particular item or service may be less than your annual limit and less than your provider's charge which means may have out-of-pocket expenses to pay. Benefits will be subject to the maximum price a Members' Choice provider is permitted to charge or the maximum benefit payable set by Medibank at a Non-Members’ Choice provider.

Orthodontic entitlement

If you have Extras 90 Boost cover, your orthodontics benefits start with an opening balance that you can access once you have served the 12-month waiting period. Every year on 1 January after this waiting period has been served the balance is topped up with an additional amount up to the maximum lifetime limit.

Benefit replacement period

Benefit replacement periods may apply for some services/items. More information on benefit replacement periods.
