What is Extras cover and how does it help you stay healthy?

Having Extras health insurance means you can claim for your regular healthcare appointments that aren’t usually covered by Medicare. These are things like a check-up at your dentist, a new pair of glasses or treatment at your physio, and can extend to a range of other services like acupuncture and dietary advice, depending on your level of cover.
