Useful info to know
You need to provide your Australian bank account details when you submit a claim (it cannot be an overseas bank account).
Once your claim is processed, any refund will be paid into this account.
There are a number of ways you can submit an OSHC claim.
- Online via the myBupa website
- Through the myBupa mobile app
- Visit a Bupa Retail Store
- See your On-Campus Consultant (where available)
- Post your claim to us (see claim form for details).
Processing times will vary depending on the nature of the claim.
Most claims for doctor visits are processed within 5 business days.
Hospital claims (including outpatient visits) are processed in approximately 7-14 days. If we require additional information we will contact you.
In some cases a Medical Certificate from the doctor will be required.
If you’re in your first 12 months of cover and are being sent for more treatment or tests, ask your doctor to complete a Bupa medical certificate.
If you would like to speak to someone about your claim, call us on 1800 888 942 or visit your nearest Bupa Retail Store.
