Can I get more information?

Frank has a lot more information about the specifics of cover. Find out more about hospital fees, doctor’s fees, gap and all the nitty gritty here.

Yes, on most services you will have to serve a waiting period if you’re new to health insurance. With Frank (and most health insurers) you have to wait a specific amount of time between signing up and making your first claim. This is called a waiting period.

Max Hospital 750 (silver+) has the following waiting periods:

  • 0 days for hospital treatment as a result of an accident (accident must occur after joining) or for emergency ambulance transport
  • 2 months for psychiatric, rehabilitation, palliative care and included hospital services and procedures that are not pre-existing conditions
  • 12 months for pregnancy services and pre-existing conditions

Find out more about waiting periods here.

The good news is that waiting periods may not apply if you’re coming to Frank from another fund. Find out more about switching to Frank here.

Yes. If you are admitted to hospital you will have to pay an excess. The most you will have to pay in excess per year is:

Single $750 per year

Couple / Family $750 per person up to a maximum of $1500 per policy

Under Frank's Max Hospital 750 (silver+), you'll be covered for a private room in a participating private hospital for services included within your cover.

For public hospitals, Frank will pay the minimum benefits for a shared room only for services included under your cover.

Always get written financial consent for any hospital admission.

You’ll still be covered, but there are special waiting periods for pre-existing conditions. For services that relate to your condition the waiting periods will be extended, generally to 12 months. Find out more about pre-existing conditions here.

All of Frank's hospital covers come with Access Gap Cover through our partnership with The Australian Health Service Alliance (AHSA).

Every hospital procedure has a minimum benefit payable set by Medicare. This is called the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) Fee. You always get 100% of this back if you have private health insurance.

Find out more about Access Gap Cover here.

Yes there are. This might make us sound mean but if you have a read, you'll see they're fair. If you’re interested, check out the list of things Frank won’t pay on here.
