Eligible members are now able to claim benefits for my services. You can verify your eligibility by phoning 132 331.

If you're looking for peace-of-mind and convenience, one of Medibank Private’s packaged covers could be for you. They have combined similar levels of hospital and extras covers so you get the best of both worlds, plus a yearly bonus.
 
Take the package, get a bonus
If you choose one of our packaged covers you'll be rewarded with a yearly bonus that can help pay for a range of approved membership and health-related expenses, such as counselling support. For our packaged covers, it's called PackageBonus.
 
Value at Members' Choice hospitals
As a Medibank member, you’ll have access to great value through their Members’ Choice network – one of the largest health provider networks in the country. If you go to a private hospital, you’ll end up paying less if it’s part of our Members’ Choice network of hospitals across Australia. They have negotiated agreements with many healthcare professionals groups and hospitals to help you save money through discounted rates or capped fees and typically higher benefits.
And, if you choose a Members' Choice  extras provider you'll receive great value including:
Free dental check-up, scale and clean twice a year – valued at over $250 a year per member
Deals on optical items with discounts from 20% off the normal retail price of frames and 15% off contact lenses.
 
Ambulance transport
If your medical condition means you can’t be transported any other way, they will cover the cost of your ambulance transport (unless you already have cover e.g. under a state scheme). This is something that’s included in all their hospital, extras (except in Qld and Tas) and packaged covers listed on their website.
