Westfund FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

This FAQ section is designed to help you better understand how Westfund dental claiming works and what it means for your appointment.

Being a Westfund Provider of Choice means we’ve entered into an agreement with Westfund to deliver dental care under specific, mutually established terms. This includes:

  • Preferred provider status:
    We’ve met Westfund’s criteria to be recognised as a trusted dental partner within their network.

Whether or not no-gap dental services apply to you depends on your Westfund policy and several key aspects. While some members may have access to fully covered treatments, others may incur a gap depending on their plan and how benefits have been used. The following factors usually influence your eligibility:

  • Level of cover:
    Only certain policies include no-gap dental. Your policy must specifically include this benefit for selected treatments.
  • Treatment type:
    No-gap services usually apply to preventative care, such as check-ups, scale and cleans, or fluoride treatments.
  • Annual limits:
    You’ll need to have available limits remaining in your policy for services to be fully covered.
  • Waiting periods:
    Some Westfund policies require that you’ve held cover for a minimum period before you can claim no-gap dental services.
  • Approved provider:
    You must visit a recognised Westfund Provider of Choice, such as our clinic, for no-gap arrangements to apply.

If you’re not certain, we recommend contacting Westfund directly or speaking with our team prior to your visit. We’re happy to help.

  • Confirm your membership status:

  • Eligible services:
    Preventative treatments like check-ups, cleans, and fluoride treatments may be covered under your plan.
