Help with medical claims

You can go to the nearest medical centre to see a General Practitioner (GP).

If you need to see a specialist, you must see a GP first to get a medical referral to a specialist.

Not every medical condition is covered by Uni-Care's plans. If you want to check you will be covered before you visit a doctor please contact our claims team at claims@uni-care.org.

You do not need to call us if you are admitted to the hospital in an emergency. However if your hospital stay is longer than 24 hours you will need to contact us. 

We recommend you seek pre-approval for planned surgery or medical care over $1,000 prior to incurring expenses to understand what is covered under your policy.

To apply for a pre-approval, please send your completed claim form, medical notes and estimated costs to claims@uni-care.org

Our claims team will contact you to with the outcome of your application including any policy limits, terms or conditions.
