A member eligibility check can give medical providers information regarding a member’s eligibility to claim on a service, including:

  • The member’s level of cover
  • Any exclusions or restrictions that apply
  • If the member’s policy is financial (i.e. premiums have been paid to date)
  • How much excess a member will need to pay and if any co-payment applies

You can contact the eligibility team for assistance. Call 1300 810 475 from 8am-4pm WST Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays, or email eligibility@hbf.com.au.

The online eligibility check will only advise any co-payments or excess that is to be paid. It will not advise any other costs from the hospital or medical providers.

Please contact our Medical Provider Relations Team at medicalgap@hbf.com.au.
Due to the systems upgrade, we have a backlog of claims that our team are diligently working through. It may take some time to clear this backlog and we appreciate your patience.
