Extras policies can have different types of limits, which vary by service or treatment. You can check these in the fact sheet for your cover at any time.
- Annual limit – Frank extras annual limits run on a calendar year (January to December) and reset on 1 January. If you use all your limit in one year, you’ll have to wait until 1 January the following year to start claiming benefits again. Annual limits apply to each person on the membership, unless otherwise stated. Note that some services also have a multi-year limit or lifetime limit (see below).
- Person limit – The total amount each person on the membership can claim on a service within a calendar year.
- Membership limit – The maximum amount that can be claimed for a membership in a calendar year. These limits are shared between all people on the membership.
- Sub-limit – The total amount you can claim on a particular service or treatment within the overall annual limit.
- Combined limits – This is a single limit that can be used across a collection of services.
- Lifetime limit – The maximum amount a person can claim for a service during the entire lifetime of a membership. This applies for orthodontic treatment, per person on the membership.
- Multi-year limit – The maximum amount you can claim, every few years. Multi-year limits reset after the specified number of years on the anniversary date for each claim in a particular service category.
We work on a calendar year, so your annual limits run from January to December and reset or roll over* on 1 January each year. If you’ve reached your limit before the end of the calendar year, you’ll have to wait until the new year for your annual limits to reset.
*Frank’s annual limit rollover is offered on combined hospital and Bundables extras covers only. With annual limit rollover, you can get an extra 12 months to claim unused benefits rolled over from the previous calendar, provided you’ve been on the same Bundables cover for a minimum of 12 months.
Remaining extras annual limits for most services can be checked in the Frank app or member area, once extras waiting periods have been served.
When you claim for an eligible service on your extras cover, you’ll only pay the difference between what you get back from Frank and the cost set by your provider.
With set benefits you’ll receive a set amount back from Frank to cover part of your cost for each item or service, up to your annual per person or per membership limit.
Percentage back extras cover allows you to get a percentage of the overall charge back each time you claim, up to your annual per person or per membership limit.
