Health Funds

Terms, conditions, and fund rules apply. Check with your health fund to confirm your eligibility before treatment.

For our patients with extras cover in their private health insurance, we offer on-site claiming through our HICAPS terminals. Some funds allow us to quote in advance through the terminal so you will know in advance where there may be a gap for your treatment. Alternatively, you can call and ask your fund to advise you on their contribution and caps for treatment.

Many people are increasingly frustrated with the low rebate they receive from their health funds. The Australian Dental Association (ADA) provides advice here on health funds and their yearly increasing premiums, although the rebates may have never increased.

The ADA has partnered with the Fair Health Care Alliance to help you compare your policy. Willow Dental Care is proudly independent and not corporately owned or a “preferred provider” or “members choice” dental practice. The BUPA “preferred provider” program is no longer an option for dental practices. The term “preferred provider” refers to a dental practice that entered into a contract with a health fund to refer their members based on a reduced fee. The term preferred or member’s choice does not reflect the quality of the care or the experience of the dentist.

At Willow Dental Care, we believe in delivering high-quality modern dentistry and back our treatment by offering a 5-year warranty for major dental.
