HICAPS 

HICAPS stands for Health Industry Claims and Payments Service.

It is an electronic health claims system that allows members of ACA Health Benefits Fund to claim automatically on the spot at their health service provider.

All it takes is a swipe of the ACA Health membership card through the provider's HICAPS machine (See How to Make a Claim for more details on how it works).

HICAPS is available for general treatments claims at participating;

• general dentists,
• optometrists,

The list of participating HICAPS providers is always growing so click to your right to find your nearest provider that uses HICAPS.

By using HICAPS you will save time, as you will no longer have to lodge your claim via the post. And, more importantly, you will save money because you won't be out of pocket during the time it takes to claim the benefit back from us.

So remember to ask for HICAPS when you next visit your general treatments provider, and start making use of its value!
