Making Claim

Personal Injury Claims

When making a claim for an injury you must:

1. Advise your club secretary that you wish to make a claim.
2. Download the claim form here.
3. Send the fully completed claim form including the signed Attending Physician's Report to the address listed on the Claim Form together with any non-Medicare medical receipts (retain a copy for your own records).

General Information

• We do not cover the costs of surgeons, anaesthetists, doctors, x-rays or accounts which are related to Medicare.
• We do not cover the Medicare Gap (The Health Insurance Act (Cth) 1973 does not permit us to).
• After $200 worth of treatment from a physiotherapist a doctors referral must be obtained.
• Subject to The Insurance Contracts Act 1984, we provide reimbursement for treatment which is received within 12 months of the injury for the period you are unable to attend ‘the sport’. Once you resume ‘the sport’ reimbursement ceases.
• If you are covered by Private Health Insurance, you must claim accounts through them first. You can then forward the receipts along with the ‘rebate advice statement’, which indicates the level of benefits paid, to our office.
• If you have undergone surgery in a private hospital (which is not covered by Medicare) please provide an itemised receipt/account.

Public Liability Claims

Advise your Association of all incidents that may lead to a Liability claim. All possible claims must be addressed correctly. Please contact JLT sport on 1300 130 373 if you have any questions.
