Home Hospital Cover Access Gap

Access Gap Cover

Should you need hospital care, you can eliminate or reduce the gap with Health Partners Access Gap Cover. When your doctor uses Health Partners Access Gap you will either:

  • have no gap to pay, or
  • know your exact gap before treatment.

Your doctor can bill Health Partners direct, to make it even simpler for you.

It's your doctor's choice to use Access Gap Cover on a patient-by-patient basis. It is important to ask your doctor if they, or any other assisting doctor, will participate in Health Partners Access Gap Cover. Ask if you will have a gap to pay and if so, how much it will be. This will encourage your doctor to participate in Access Gap Cover.

Any excess or co-payment applicable on your level of cover will still apply.

To determine if your doctor participates in Access Gap, go to Doctor Search.
