Gap schemes and out of pocket expenses

Yes there is. Our Health partner has the Phoenix Health Fund’s Access Gap Cover Scheme it allows members with private hospital cover to eliminate or reduce out-of-pocket expenses for medical gap payments for in-patient hospital treatments.

Phoenix Health Fund does not pay an amount charged by your doctor above the Medicare Benefits Schedule Fee unless your doctor agrees to participate in the Access Gap Cover Scheme. If a doctor does not use the Access Gap Cover Scheme, you will be responsible for any additional charges.
