Our Global Health Elite plans provide cover for treatment with an acupuncturist, homeopath, chiropractor or osteopath, or chiropodist or podiatrist. These treatments are not covered under our Global Health Essential plans and we do not cover any other forms of alternative medicine. You have to have been referred by a medical doctor for complimentary treatment, and we will require the doctor’s referral letter before we can assess your claim. There are limits to the number of sessions you may claim for in any one year and these limits are stated in your plan agreement. If you are a Bronze plan holder, you can only claim for any of these treatments if you receive them during the 90 day period following discharge from hospital, and the treatment must be related to the in-patient treatment you have received.
