Certain dental procedures that are performed in-hospital and out-of-hospital require pre-authorisation. The Polmed payment rules, clinical protocols and guidelines will also apply. After assessing the suitability of the procedure, Polmed will communicate the outcome of the pre-authorisation request to the member and treating provider.

Please refer to the current Polmed Guide to Your Health booklet for more information about dental benefits and pre-authorisation requirements.

If the above information is not provided, Polmed may not be able to authorise the procedure.
