A benefit is the amount you can claim from nib for a specific service. nib benefits are limited to one benefit per patient, provider and day. For example, if a provider performs both remedial massage and acupuncture for you in one appointment, you’ll be able to make a claim for the service that has the higher benefit, and you’ll need to pay full price for the other service.
Similarly, where multiple services are performed on the same day at different times by the same provider (e.g. a morning visit followed by an afternoon visit) then only one visit or service is payable.
