This card can be used to pay for services at the point of sale where the provider has software installed to enable that. 2. Because a dependant does not become eligible until after they have been registered on The Program, claims cannot be made for services that are provided on a day before the dependant is registered. 2. Eligible dependants can only be registered by one ADF member. If an eligible dependant has more than one parent or guardian who could register them under The Program, then only one of those members may register the dependant. Note: It is for the members to decide and agree which one of them performs that task. 3. A member cannot be registered as an eligible dependant under The Program. 4. A member may elect to register or deregister a dependant at any time. 5. If a person requests to be removed from The Program, Defence must action that request within a reasonable period of time. 6. Information about members and their dependants that is collected by The Program is dealt with in accordance with the Privacy Act Life of the benefit 1. Benefits under The Program are only payable on claims submitted within 12 months of the services or products being provided. 2. This means that the claimant must submit a claim within 12 months of an eligible dependant receiving a service or product in order to be reimbursed under The Program.

13 EXPLANATORY STATEMENT Defence Determination 2014/49 This Determination amends Defence Determination 2005/15, Conditions of service (the Principal Determination), made under section 58B of the Defence Act 1903 (the Defence Act) and in accordance with subsection 33(3) of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 (AIA Act). Determinations made under section 58B of the Defence Act are disallowable non-legislative instruments and are subject to the interpretation principles in the AIA Act, as modified by section 58B of the Defence Act. Chapter 8 of the Principal Determination sets out provisions for members of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and their dependants. The purpose of this Determination is to reimburse ADF members or their dependants for basic health care costs incurred within Australia by those members' dependants who are registered under the National ADF Family Health Program. Clause 1 of this Determination sets out the manner in which this Determination may be cited. Clause 2 of this Determination provides that the Determination is taken to have commenced 1 January Clause 3 specifies that the amendment is made to the Principal Determination, as amended. Clause 4 adds a new Part 8 to the contents list for Chapter 8 of the Principal Determination. Clause 5 inserts new Part 8 into Chapter 8 of the Principal Determination. The new Part sets out provisions to reimburse members or their dependants for basic health care costs incurred within Australia by their dependants under the National ADF Family Health Program (The Program). The new Part includes the following clauses. Clause provides the purpose of the Part. Clause sets out which members the Part applies in relation to. Clause provides a table defining terms used in the Part. Clause provides that members or their dependants may be reimbursed out of pocket expenses for medical expenses incurred by their dependants for services provided in a general practice setting. There is no set limit on the amount that can be reimbursed as use of general practice service is based on health needs. Clause provides that members or their dependants may also be reimbursed up to $400 each year for out of pocket expenses incurred by dependants for consultations with medical specialists and other specified health professionals, and for the cost of required appliances. It also requires certain information to be provided as part of a claim made under The Program. Clause excludes reimbursement of hospital and institutional accommodation and meal costs. Clause provides what a member must do to register a dependant in The Program. Clause provides a 12 month time limit for reimbursements under The Program. As a legal representative can claim for the member or their dependant, it is unlikely that any person would miss out on reimbursement in the event that the usual claimant is severely ill or dies. Clause 6 is a transitional clause with effect for a retrospective period to 1 January It provides that a member whose eligible registered dependants have incurred health expenses that would have been reimbursable under this determination had it commenced 1 January 2014 and the day this determination is signed, may be reimbursed out of pocket expenses, less any reimbursement already made (such as Medicare rebates) for those services.
14 Criteria are provided for the exercise of discretions under the Principal Determination, as amended by this Determination. Adverse decisions are subject to merits review under the ADF redress of grievance system, including an appeal to the Defence Force Ombudsman. The retrospective application of this Determination does not affect the rights of a person (other than the Commonwealth) in a manner prejudicial to that person, nor does it impose any liability on such person. Authority: Section 58B of the Defence Act 1903
15 Statement of Compatibility with Human Rights Prepared in accordance with Part 3 of the Human Rights (Parliamentary Scrutiny) Act 2011 Defence Determination 2014/49, National ADF Family Health Program This Determination is compatible with the human rights and freedoms recognised or declared in the international instruments listed in section 3 of the Human Rights (Parliamentary Scrutiny) Act Overview of the Determination The purpose of this Determination is to reimburse members for basic health care costs incurred within Australia by their dependants registered under the National ADF Family Health Program. Human rights implications Right to physical and mental health. The protection of a person's right to health engages Article 12 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. Article 12 guarantees the highest standard of physical and mental health, ensuring minimum health standards for children, the environment and the availability of medical services. Legitimate objective: Defence members are posted to perform duty in many locations around Australia and in overseas locations. They are often required to perform duty in conditions that can include, but are not limited to, hazard, stress, climate, health care facilities, infrastructure and isolation. Members are often separated from their dependants for Service reasons. Reasonable, necessary and proportionate: Defence recognises the commitment and sacrifice Defence members make for the nation. The Program reimburses some of the out of pocket medical expenses incurred by the dependants who support these members. Conclusion This Determination is compatible with human rights because it advances the protection of human rights.
