Preferred providers are dental clinics that enter into agreements with private health insurance companies. These agreements typically involve a predetermined fee schedule and treatment limitations set by the health fund. For patients, this can lead to lower out-of-pocket expenses; however, it may also result in fewer options for dental treatment. As an independent private dental clinic, Yass Valley Dental can customize your dental care to meet your individual needs rather than being constrained by health fund agreements.

At Yass Valley Dental, YOU are our top priority, and we appreciate your commitment to us. Our dentists and clinicians are dedicated professionals who take the time to understand your needs. By opting out of preferred provider agreements, we can ensure that you receive the best personalised care without the restrictions imposed by health funds. As a private dental practice, we believe that offering a wide range of treatment options is essential for delivering the best care to our patients.

Absolutely! You can still receive a health fund rebate when you visit us, although the amounts may vary. Claiming through HICAPS will continue to be available on the day of your appointment; however, this change may affect your gap payment or out-of-pocket expenses. The benefits you can claim at Yass Valley Dental will depend on the coverage provided by your health fund. Our team is always ready to assist you to ensure a smooth transition.

Yes, we accept claims for all major health funds. We can process on the spot HICAPS claims for immediate health fund rebates. Depending on your level of health fund cover, a gap payment may apply for treatment costs.
