23.01.2022 Ever wondered what it's like on a cargo ship during a storm off Albany? It was recorded at the same time as a 13m wave was recorded, largest on record, off Albany FULL STORY: http://bit.ly/2vobYKt

20.01.2022 The poor rebates from heailth cover policies: Low rebates? If you have what is popularly known as extras cover your fund officially calls it either general ...or ancillary treatment cover which includes things like dentistry, optometry and physiotherapy, you could be forgiven for thinking there is no rhyme or reason behind the rebate amount you receive when you make a claim. After all, your fund isn’t exactly rushing to tell you how they calculate the amount and they are more apt than not to lay the blame at the foot of your dentist (or other healthcare providers) than their own policies. Your dentist is not to blame There are a number of factors that shape your rebate amount, and contrary to what your fund may tell you, your dentist is not the issue. For example, from March 2012 to March 2017, average dental fees per service only rose by 3%, with dental fees overall just keeping pace with the Consumer Price Index; by way of contrast, while the average rebate fees paid out rose 4%, it was dwarfed by a staggering increase in premiums of 38%. You are, in other words, considerably worse off and it’s not the doing of your dentist, who has effectively capped their fee increases well below those of premium increases by your fund. One of these policy holders is not like the other Quite a number of insurers are trying to direct policy holders like you to their own contracted dentists (they may use the warm-and-fuzzy term preferred providers, which is misleading since they are no more or less qualified than your own highly-skilled dentist) or their own clinics with the promise of higher rebates. Sounds like an easy decision, right? They’re offering you more money if you use their dentist. The sting in the tail though is that it means leaving your dentist behind, someone who knows your treatment history and the best way to treat you. If you choose to stay with your own dentist, then you are effectively being discriminated against by your own fund, and risking your dental health into the bargain. Mind the gap So the next time you’re staring into the yawning chasm between the fee you’ve paid to your dentist, and the rebate your fund has handed back to you, remember that your dentist is in your corner. If your insurer ever tells you that you are getting back such-and-such an amount solely because of the fees charged by your dentist, remember that the amount you receive back as a rebate is entirely at the discretion of your fund. Would you like to take some concrete action? You can file a complaint with the Private Health Industry Ombudsman and also add your voice to our Time2Switch campaign, where we are working to restore balance to the relationship between patients like yourself, the dental profession and private health insurers. Time2Switch campaign The aim of the Time2Switch campaign is to create a more workable balance between the profession, our patients and the health funds. Private Health Insurance Ombudsman Provides access to the Standard Information Statements which every insurer must have available by law, as well as supplying a list of every registered health fund in Australia, and the ability to search and compare their policies. Fact sheet: Essential Questions Looking to get private health insurance for the first time or considering a switch in policy? First, ask yourself these essential questions. Fact Sheet: It's Your Choice Private health insurance is confusing so read carefully what it covers before you sign up.

09.01.2022 The preferred provider sad saga.... Insurers direct patients to practitioners that have signed contracts with the insurance companies called preferred providers and give higher out of pocket cover when attending these practices. This economically challenges those practitioners that have elected not to sign contracts which encompasses the practitioner to agree to charging fees determined by the insurer which amount to up to a 25% discount on fees currently charged. In my view...Continue reading

05.01.2022 To all our Facebook followers, our practice could do with a few more patients coming to see us. It has been a very quiet week this week with not a lot of calls for bookings. New patients are welcome. To make a booking phone Dr Burn on his mobile 0411222893. As both Dr Burn and his partner and nurse, Doris may not be at our Broadway rooms when you ring for an appointment with the marvels of our I-phone calander we can arrange a booking for you that suits your availability. ...We will only be in attendance at the practice when we have patients in who have booked a time slot for us to attend to them. This arrangement has been in place since last year and it seems to be working quite well as we can partake in other activities when we haven't got bookings. We look forward to continuing seeing our regular patients and will also take on new patients and will attend to emergency situations if we can. See more
