Garment Funding

Some private health fund insurers may offer rebates for garments. If they do, an invoice is usually sufficient, which is automatically emailed to you with the purchase notification.

A referral or recommendation from your practitioner may be required. As we are the supplier we are unable to assist in that area.

Check with your health fund for specific requirements.
