How to find a provider
If you choose one of the Rio Tinto Better Health Cover extras product, you’ll get a percentage back on included extras at all recognised providers.^
You could generally get better value by choosing a provider from Medibank’s extensive Members’ Choice Network#. We have negotiated on your behalf with the providers in our network, so you won’t be charged more than the agreed price.

How to make a claim
Claiming with Medibank is easy. If your health provider doesn’t process the claim on the spot, then you’ve got a range of options to choose from. Most extras can be claimed online or via our handy mobile app. For other services you’ll need to download a claim form and post it back to us with any accounts and receipts. How you get paid is up to you – either directly into your account or via a cheque in the mail.
