We accept every Australian health fund — not just these ones

Whoever you're insured with, you can claim your rebate instantly at the chair through HICAPS at all five My Dentist Network clinics. Just bring your physical or digital fund card and you'll only ever pay the difference. The partnerships below are additional benefits we've negotiated on top of that.

More back in your pocket — every visit

Same treatment. Same dentist. Same chair. The difference is that when you see a preferred provider, your fund pays a higher benefit and we’ve agreed to charge your fund’s capped fees. Both sides of the sum move in your favour — so the gap you actually pay gets smaller.
A higher benefit

-

An agreed, capped fee

=

Less out of your pocket
You get a bigger rebate
At a preferred provider, your fund pays a higher benefit than it does at a non-network clinic. Same procedure — more of it comes back to you.
Our fees are capped
We charge your fund’s agreed price list — rates negotiated to sit below what clinics outside the network typically charge for the same work.
So your gap shrinks

Bigger rebate plus a capped fee means less to pay at the desk. On preventive care with several of our funds, that gap can be $0.

Nothing to claim back
It’s all settled at the chair through HICAPS. Your rebate applies instantly — you pay the gap, if there is one, and leave.
The honest caveat: exactly what you get back depends on your level of cover, how much of your annual limit is left, and any waiting periods. Bring your card and we’ll run a free HICAPS quote before we start, so you know your out-of-pocket cost up front. Full terms at the foot of this page.

Why we're able to offer this
We hold preferred provider status with all six major funds — and these networks are closed. Funds cap how many practices they admit in an area, and assess infection control, clinical governance, facilities and patient outcomes before letting a clinic in. We're an independently ADA-accredited practice meeting NSQHS national safety standards, rated 4.8 from 262+ Google reviews.

Health fund questions, answered

Do I have to be with one of these funds to come to Lynbrook Dental Care?
No. We accept every Australian health fund and process your claim instantly at the chair through HICAPS, so you only pay the gap. Preferred provider status with these six funds simply means those members get extra benefits on top.
It means the fund has assessed our clinic against its clinical, safety and service standards and invited us into a closed network. In return we charge that fund’s agreed fee schedule. For you, that means a lower gap — and for several funds, no gap at all on preventive care.
Call us before your appointment with your fund and membership number and we’ll run a free HICAPS quote so you know your out-of-pocket cost before you sit down. Or check your cover summary in your fund’s app.
Only the gap — the difference between our fee and your fund’s benefit. On preventive care with several of these funds, that gap can be $0 if you have eligible cover and available limits.
Yes, and you should. Most extras limits reset on 1 January and unused benefit does not roll over. December books out fast, so call early.
Yes, as long as each person is listed on the policy and has served any applicable waiting periods. We can see multiple family members back-to-back in one visit.

Important information about health fund benefits

Benefits, rebates and out-of-pocket costs depend entirely on your individual level of cover, your annual limits, any waiting periods, and each fund’s rules. The information below is a general summary only and is not a guarantee of benefit. Always confirm your entitlements directly with your fund before treatment — or ask our reception team and we’ll run a HICAPS quote for you at no cost.

Bupa Members First Platinum: 100% back on up to two 6-monthly check-up and cleans every year is available at Members First Platinum and Members First Ultimate providers; cover eligibility and yearly limits vary. “50% or more back on most dental services” depends on your level of cover and is up to yearly limits. 100% back on general dental fillings is available at Members First Ultimate providers only and does not apply here. Waiting periods, benefit claiming restrictions, policy and fund rules apply. Check your cover in myBupa. Full details at Bupa.

Medibank Members’ Choice Advantage: Eligible members on Medibank extras (excluding Healthy Living Extras and Gold Ultra Health) can claim a maximum of two 100%-back check-ups per member per year at a Members’ Choice Advantage provider.
