Cosmetic surgery

Cosmetic surgery refers to procedures performed that are non-medically necessary. We are unable to pay benefits for these procedures or the hospital costs associated with them.

To help us determine if your treatment is medically necessary, we may ask for further information from your treating practitioner before we can confirm your correct benefit entitlements. If in doubt, talk to your doctor and call us before committing to any treatment. See Plastic and reconstructive surgery.
