With one swipe of your HCI membership card through an EFTPOS style terminal your health service provider can have the cost of your consultation assessed electronically. Based on your level of cover, entitlements will be authorised on the spot. You will need to pay the difference (if any) between your extras benefit, which HCI pays directly to the practitioner, and the fee charged.
If you have paid the account, your benefit can be paid electronically into your nominated bank account. You will receive separate notification as to the payment details.
If you have paid the account, a cheque will be made payable to you, or if you have not paid the account, a cheque will be made payable to the practitioner who provided the treatment.
