Emergency Ambulance Transport
This cover pays the cost of emergency Ambulance services when transported directly to hospital or treated at the scene due to a medical emergency. Transport must be provided by Ambulance services recognised by CBHS. Ambulance benefits are not payable for transportation to hospital for the routine management of an ongoing medical condition or transportation between hospitals. Due to variations in State government legislation, not all States receive the same Ambulance benefits. Contact CBHS for more details.
Services
Some services such as surgical podiatry, laser eye surgery, cosmetic and plastic surgery do not attract a benefit from Medicare. Services that do not attract a benefit from Medicare will result in significant out-of pocket expenses regardless of your level of cover.
