What’s the flu vaccination benefit?

It’s a sub-limit of Healthy Lifestyle.

Eligibility

Members aged between 5 and 65 years on Top Extras, Mid Extras or StarterPak who get a flu shot can claim for vaccinations given by a registered pharmacist or GP.

Unfortunately, we can’t pay you this benefit if you received a government- or employer-funded flu vaccine.

Some people with a higher risk of severe complications from influenza can receive a free flu vaccine under the National Immunisation Program. If you think you’re eligible, please contact your healthcare provider first to get a free vaccine through this program instead.

Limits

Here’s how much you’ll get back:

  • Top Extras and Mid Extras – we’ll pay the cost of the vaccine up to $30 per person*
  • StarterPak – we’ll pay for the cost of the vaccine up to $30 per person, to a maximum of $60 per policy for Couple, Single Parent and Family policies*

We’ll only pay for the vaccine’s cost, not any consultation, service fees, or other costs.

*These benefits depend on your available overall Healthy Lifestyle limits. If you’ve already used up your annual Healthy Lifestyle limit, unfortunately you won’t be able to claim for the flu vaccine.
