Mount Lawley, Australia - May 4, 2019 /MarketersMedia/ —

Dentique Dental Spa is pleased to announce that they have been accepted as a preferred provider for HBF. This status allows new and existing patients to take advantage of the benefits provided by one of the largest WA dental insurance providers.

Dr Camelia Furlan, the principal dentist, reports “This is extremely good news in that HBF is one of the main Insurance Providers in Western Australia and many of our patients were unable to get good benefits due to the old system”.

As noted by Dr Furlan, there were some positive changes within HBF that made the offering more beneficial to their patient base. Not only that, but in her words “After many complaints from our patients and dentists that were affected by the discriminatory old system, it is great news that as of 1st of January 2019, HBF is doing the right thing by their members.“ A visit to the dentist can be quite costly depending on the type of treatment that needs to be performed – assistance in the form of dental insurance helps to minimise the costs incurred by a patient.

According to HBF’s website, benefits afforded to patients include:
- One fully covered scale and clean per calendar year.
- 75% or 85% back on Preventative Services for members on basic to mid-levels of extras cover and guaranteed out of pocket costs.
- 100% back or no gap for whole family (with or without dependents) on Preventative Services for members on top level of extras cover.

The Ancillary Provider Relations Team at HBF stated “We are pleased to advise that Dentique Dental Spa of 6/145 Walcott Street, Mount Lawley, Western Australia, 6050 has been accepted onto the Arrangement effective 1 January 2019.”

“Finding a dental clinic that is an HBF preferred provider can be a challenge”, according to Kendal, the clinic’s senior front office coordinator. “Many people used to call us asking if we took their HBF dental cover; while we could, the patients were often disappointed when they found out how low the rebates were. However, that situation has now changed, and our patients have voiced their appreciation for this move.”

Dr Furlan also noted “This is a win-win for all of us, and it helps make a trip to the dentist more affordable. Our team is totally committed to providing the best possible restorative and cosmetic dental care possible, which is why this news is very positive for the community of this Perth suburb.” Jemma, Dr. Furlan’s Treatment Coordinator adds “Some of our patients who previously have not been able to attend as regularly as they should because of a cost concern, will now be able to take advantage of this preferred provider status, and we have already seen improvements in their dental care.”

Dr Furlan has proudly served the suburbs of Perth WA for more than 20 years, providing the best oral care that her patients deserve. The clinic has convenient appointment times, and they use Hicap terminals so that you can claim from your health fund immediately if you are covered for dental. The friendly staff are there to care for their patient's needs.
