What is the 'Hospital Cash Payment'?

The following is general advice only and does not take into account your individual needs, objectives or financial situation. Consider the PDS prior to deciding whether this policy is appropriate for you and your trip. 

This benefit reimburses you for your out-of-pocket non-medical expenses (e.g. phone calls, magazine, newspapers, TV hire and internet access) if you have been hospitalised during your overseas trip. 

You will receive $50 for each 24-hour period you are in hospital, after you are in hospital for more than 48 continuous hours. 

Note: 

• This benefit is only available with select policies. 
• We will not pay for any claims related to COVID-19 under this benefit. 
• The benefit does not apply to the first 48 hours that you are hospitalised. 

As each individual’s circumstances are different, in the event of a claim, our claims team will assess each claim on a case by case basis. 

Cover is subject to the policy terms, conditions, limitsand exclusions in the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS).
