Young Extras can be purchased on its own or as a package with one of our hospital covers. If you would like to take a hospital cover with Young Extras please review all other options in our Health Benefits Guide. Australian Government Rebate on private health insurance The Australian Government Rebate on Private Health Insurance was introduced as a financial incentive to assist Australians afford Private Health Cover, and to recognise the contribution that people with private health insurance are making to their own health care costs. Rebate entitlement depends on your age, and assessable income*. From 1 April 2014, the rebate is indexed each year by the difference between CPI and the industry average increase in premiums using a Government-calculated formula. It s up to you to nominate a rebate tier (based on your age and assessable income*). Some people choose to take their rebate up front as a lower premium, but if you d prefer to claim the rebate as a lump sum through your tax at the end of the financial year, you can simply choose to pay the full premium with no rebate deducted. * For information in regards to the assessable income thresholds please refer to our website com.au under your cover explained/government initiatives. For calculation method for this income known as income for Medicare Levy Surcharge purposes, please seek the advice of your tax agent, financial advisor or contact the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) Help Line on or visit their website at Income-for-Medicare-levy-surcharge/ QUEENSLAND COUNTRY OFFERS: VALUE FOR MONEY ACCESS TO YOUR HEALTH VERY HIGH LEVELS OF HEALTH INSURANCE INSURANCE POLICY MEMBER SATISFACTION PRODUCTS WITH INFORMATION WHICH IS CONFIRMED 2 COMPREHENSIVE BENEFITS VIA OUR ONLINE MEMBER SERVICES WITH MEMBER SURVEYS

12 In more detail We have included some important information you may need to enable you to better understand your cover entitlements and conditions. Additional information is available in the Membership Guide. Pre-Existing Conditions A pre-existing ailment, illness or condition is one where, after examining evidence, a medical adviser, or other relevant health care practitioner appointed by Queensland Country would consider that signs or symptoms would have been in existence at any time during the six months preceding the application for membership or upgrade of cover. You may have a pre-existing condition, ailment or illness without being aware of it. In these cases, there is a 12 month waiting period before you are entitled to claim benefits for treatment. It is not necessary for the signs or symptoms to have been diagnosed by a doctor when a Member joined or upgraded their level of cover. 10

13 Benefit Conditions Queensland Country will only pay benefits when: All applicable waiting periods have been served Benefits are not payable for claims for goods purchased or rendered outside of Australia or, for items purchased or hired from overseas suppliers (including internet purchases) Goods or services are provided in Australia (not including items imported by the user via an internet purchase) The Member has been charged for the treatment or service A service or treatment is medically necessary and clinically relevant Services are part of a course of treatment recognised by Queensland Country The service is provided in person The service is provided to a person on the membership The service or treatment has been provided by a practitioner or therapist recognised by Queensland Country The treatment or service is covered under the Member s level of cover No benefits are payable from another source (e.g. compensation payment or Government benefit) The conditions of the level of cover have been met A claim for a service rendered is submitted for payment within 24 months of the date of service The waiting period for that service has been served The amount of benefit is calculated on the cost of the treatment or aid to the Member, taking into account any allowances or discounts given by the provider. No benefit paid by Queensland Country can exceed the actual charge of the service or appliance. 11

14 12 Membership Year All yearly limits are calculated from the anniversary date of the establishment of the membership. Singles & Couples Single: a single policy covers only one person. Couple: a couple policy covers the person who establishes the policy as well as one other partner/spouse. Waiting Periods So when will I be fully covered you ask? Waiting periods apply when you join any health fund for the very first time or when you upgrade to a higher level of cover. But you won t have to wait if you re transferring to Queensland Country from an equivalent or higher level of cover with another health fund, or if you ve been covered by your parents membership and you re just starting out on your own. Waiting periods are necessary to keep health cover fair and aim to protect our existing policy holders who contribute to a fund over a period of time for when they may need cover. If we didn t have these waiting periods people may join, claim for something planned and then leave. Always make sure you have waited the sufficient period before claiming, otherwise you may not be covered! Contribution in arrears A policy holder who fails to pay contributions within 63 days of the day of which contributions were due and payable shall be deemed to be unfinancial. No benefits are payable for services rendered whilst a membership remains in arrears. However, provided contributions are paid within 63 days of the due date, the membership will be reinstated. Membership of Queensland Country shall automatically cease for any policy holder whose contributions are more than 63 days in arrears. Cooling Off Period Queensland Country will allow any Member who has not yet made a claim to cancel their policy and receive a full refund of any premiums paid within a period of 30 days from the commencement of their policy or upgraded policy. ALWAYS MAKE SURE YOU HAVE WAITED THE APPLICABLE PERIOD BEFORE CLAIMING OTHERWISE YOU MAY a NOT BE COVERED

Recognition is subject to change without notice. There are no benefits payable for overseas hospitalisation or ancillary care. Recognition of providers is for the purpose of determining the payment of benefits and should not be taken or considered in any way as approval of, or any recommendation as to the qualifications and skills of, or services provided by, a practitioner or therapist. Members should check with Queensland Country that their practitioner is recognised before commencing treatment. Pharmaceutical The Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) is a national pharmaceutical scheme funded by the Federal Government where patients make a contribution to the cost of prescribed drugs. We do not pay for any pharmaceutical prescriptions covered by the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme or for contraceptives and items normally available without prescriptions. If the claim is for a PBS Pharmaceutical prescription, Queensland Country cannot pay a benefit. The 2 month Waiting Period is waived for treatment arising from an accident (excluding a school and sporting accident) that occurred after joining. *Surgical Extraction benefits are paid on dental item numbers only, unless hospital cover is held and all waits have been served for any in-patient services. We ll pay benefits as outlined in the Extras table up to the claim limit for this category with consideration to the maximum individual script benefit limit. Benefit amount per script is calculated by deducting the PBS general patient contribution amount from the 13

16 14 purchase price (up to script benefit limit) This is conditional on the pharmaceutical prescription being listed in the MIMs Schedule as S4 or S8 and being dispensed in quantities in accordance with this schedule. The PBS general patient contribution amount is reviewed annually by the Government and changes every year on 1 January. As at 1 January 2014 the PBS General Patient contribution is set at $ A Doctor s letter may be required for some pharmacy items. Overseas suspension of membership If you re lucky enough to travel overseas, and you re going to be absent from Australia for more than 4 weeks and less than 24 months, and provided you ve fulfilled all other criteria, you may apply for a suspension on your membership.
