Can I claim for physiotherapy treatment from a private health insurance fund?
A. Physiotherapy treatment is claimable from all health insurance funds if you have extras cover. Some funds have specifically selected physiotherapy as an extras option. Most funds also cover hydrotherapy, group physiotherapy exercise classes and group Pilates classes, but a different code is used in billing. Your health fund information booklet or client services staff will be able to tell you if your particular fund covers these treatments.
