Extras costs explained

Extras cover gives you money back for non-hospital services such as dental, physio, optical and more. The amount of money you can claim back depends on the level of cover you have. Generally speaking, the higher the level of cover, the higher your annual limit and higher the percentage you can claim back. Which means more money back in your pocket.
