Albany Place Dental Practice

Payments

At Albany Place Dental Practice, we believe in providing a transparent approach when it comes to your treatment fees. Before beginning any form of treatment, our team will explain each procedure with a clear breakdown of costs and options available for you while focusing on your goals and dental needs.

Payment Options

Albany Place Dental Practice offers a range of payment options to accommodate different financial circumstances, ensuring that accessing dental care remains as straightforward as possible.

If you would like to explore payment options, our team can guide you through the required steps to help you choose the most suitable approach for your lifestyle. If you have private health coverage, we can assist with your claiming process and the applicable gap payments for your treatment.

EFTPOS

The following payment methods are accepted through EFTPOS for your convenience:

HICAPS

(Health Insurance Claims at Point of Sale)

If you have private health insurance cover with “Extras,” we can process your health fund card on-site. Using our HICAPS terminal, your rebate is calculated instantly, allowing you to settle only the remaining “gap” payment at the time of your visit.

Because every health fund and policy level is unique, you should request the specific 3-digit ADA Item Numbers from your treatment plan to check your exact rebate directly with your insurer prior to your appointment.

Payment Plans

We understand that some dental treatments can be a larger investment, which is why we offer a range of payment plan options to help make care more manageable. We also accept all health funds, with eligibility and payment plan approvals subject to each provider’s terms and conditions.

Afterpay splits the outstanding balance into four equal fortnightly instalments, interest-free. It is a commonly used option for patients covering routine to mid-range treatment costs.

Preferred Health Fund Providers

We’re proud to be preferred providers with HCF and nib, helping eligible patients access additional benefits on selected dental services.

Eligible members can access up to 2 gap-free check-ups and cleans per calendar year, as well as 2 free mouthguards per calendar year, subject to their level of cover and health fund terms.

Eligible members can access reduced fees for selected services, including check-ups, cleans and fillings, subject to their level of cover and health fund terms.

We recommend checking your eligibility and available benefits with your health fund before treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a payment plan for all treatments?

Payment plans may be available for selected treatments and will depend on the treatment type and provider approval criteria.

Are payment plans interest-free?

Interest conditions vary depending on the provider you select. For instance, Afterpay offers interest-free fortnightly instalments for routine dental costs. We recommend reviewing the provider’s terms and conditions carefully to determine the most suitable approach for your lifestyle.

How do I arrange a payment plan for my treatment?

Our team is available to guide you through the required steps at any stage, whether prior to your visit or when treatment commences. As eligibility for options like Afterpay, Zip Pay, or SuperCare is subject to each provider’s approval process, we advise arranging these details in advance for larger treatment plans.
