Elite extras provides benefits for those services which generally do not attract a benefit under Medicare.
*Note: Extras Cover taken by itself does not include any cover for hospital treatment. It can be taken as a combined product with either of our hospital covers. (ie: Elite Hospital Cover or Optimum Hospital Hospital or Basic Hospital Cover or our Thrifty Hospital).
It may be beneficial to incorporate one of our hospital covers to avoid paying the Medicare levy surcharge.
