Osteopathy and Health Funds in Australia: What You Need to Know

Written By Demi Woodford

Wondering if you can claim osteopathic treatment through your private health fund? Here’s everything you need to know when visiting Oasis Osteopathy and Co. in Busselton.

Is Osteopathy Covered by Health Funds?

Yes! Most private health insurance providers in Australia offer rebates for osteopathic services as part of their extras cover. The exact amount and eligibility depend on your policy and provider.

What Do I Need to Claim?

All of our practitioners are registered with AHPRA (Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency) and eligible for private health fund claiming. After your treatment, we have HICAPS machines to allow you to claim on the spot depending on your fund and setup.

Check Your Coverage

It’s a good idea to contact your health insurer or log into your member portal to confirm if osteopathy is included in your extras and what the rebate amount is.

No Referral Required

You don’t need a referral to see an osteopath in Australia. Just book an appointment and bring your private health details if you plan to claim.

Supporting Your Health Affordably

We believe everyone deserves access to quality care. If you have any questions about rebates or payment, get in touch — we’re happy to help.
