Payment Options

At Dental on Lawrence, we offer several payment options to make your next visit to the dentist as easy as possible:

We happily accept payment by cash, EFTPOS, and most major credit cards (excluding Amex and Diners Club).

 

Private Health Insurance

If you hold a health insurance policy that includes dental care, we can lodge your claim right here at Dental on Lawrence.

Using HICAPS (Health Industry Claims and Payments Service), we can claim your private health insurance benefit on your behalf. By claiming at the time of service, your only out-of-pocket expense is any gap left by your insurer.  Simply bring your health insurance membership card to your appointment and we will do the rest.

We are pleased to hold preferred-provider status with HCF.

 

Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS)

Is your child eligible to receive $1026-00 worth of dental treatment through the Medicare-funded Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS)?

CDBS is an income-based benefit that is available for children aged between 2 and 17 years (up to and including the year they turn 18). The schedule covers basic services like check-ups, cleans, fillings, and tooth removal.  (Orthodontics (braces) and cosmetic dentistry are not claimable.)

If you receive Family Tax Benefit A, your child is likely to be entitled to receive this government-funded benefit.  In most instances, eligible accounts are bulk-billed at the time of treatment. Where treatment is not eligible for bulk-billing, the invoice must be paid in full and the Medicare benefit claimed back by the account holder. 

Bulk billing is subject to annual limits, and/or limitations on the length of time that must elapse between services.  

For more information or to check if your child is eligible for the Child Dental Benefits Schedule, visit the Services Australia website.

 

Department of Veterans' Affairs

Dental on Lawrence is proud to provide dental care for eligible members of the veteran community.  If you hold a Gold or White DVA Card, you may be eligible to access dental care that is subsidised by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs.  

Some restrictions apply.  Claims are subject to annual monetary limits, pre-approval requirements, and/or limitations on the length of time that must elapse before a service can be claimed.  For more information please see the Veterans Affairs Website.

 

Finance Options

We appreciate that sometimes dental treatment may put a strain on your budget and this means looking after your teeth becomes a low priority.  There are times, however, when you just can’t put it off and you will need to have that treatment sooner rather than later. 

That's why we have teamed up with Zip.  

From routine dental work to something more extensive, Zip may be able to provide the help you need to look after yourself.  With a flexible monthly payment plan, you can smile now and pay off the account in instalments that suit your lifestyle*.

* Terms & Conditions apply and are available on application through the Zip website.  Finance is available to Zip-approved applicants only.  Minimum monthly repayments are required; see your contract for details.  Dental on Lawrence, its staff and providers receive no benefit from Zip. Zip assesses applications independently of Dental on Lawrence.
