Essential, Basic and Core Saver Plans

You only have cover for approved Prescribed Minimum Benefit cancer treatment. We do need your treatment Plan, in order to approve your cover.

Traditional, Comprehensive and Plus Plans

You have unlimited cover; this means that we do not stop paying for approved treatments. You will need to send us your treatment Plan, in order to approve your cover before your Healthcare Professional commences treatment.
