⁺ Covers with Restricted or Excluded services will be treated as Included services where treatment is required for injuries sustained in an Accident that occurs after joining this cover. Treatment must be sought within 7 days of the Accident. Excludes claims covered by third parties such as Workcover and our Private Room Promise. Out of pockets may apply. Refer to your Cover Summary.
