An annual limit is the maximum amount of benefits payable towards services, items or groups of services and/or items within a financial year (1 July to 30 June). However some benefits for Super Extras are based on a rolling year, which begins on the date a service was first provided with the limit applying to that month period following the date of the first service. Benefits that have been paid under your previous cover will be taken into account in determining the benefits payable under your ahm cover. Your annual claiming limit for some services will increase after you ve been with us for over 5, 10 and 20 continuous financial years. Some services also have a lifetime limit. Once you ve reached this limit you can no longer claim that benefit in any future year of membership, even if you change your cover. $30 100% No limit 1 day Get in touch Monday to Friday info@ahm.com.au ahm.com.au Find us on Facebook facebook.com/ahm.health.insurance ahm by Medibank is a business of Medibank Private Ltd ABN ahm by Medibank, ahm Health Insurance and ahm are references to Medibank Private Ltd trading as ahm by Medibank.
