How Super Access Increases Treatment Acceptance Ethically

Written by Super for Health Insights Team | Jun 4, 2025 2:21:33 PM

When Cost Becomes a Clinical Barrier

For many patients, cost is the primary barrier to accessing timely medical treatment. As a medical practice, you've likely witnessed patients hesitate, delay, or decline essential procedures—not because they lack need, but because they lack funds.

This presents both a clinical and ethical challenge. How do you support patients through financial obstacles without putting your team in a position where you're offering financial advice, assuming risk, or crossing regulatory boundaries?


 

A Compliant and Compassionate Solution

The ATO’s Compassionate Release of Superannuation (CRS) scheme provides a powerful funding option for eligible patients. Super for Health simplifies access to this scheme through a fully compliant, patient-led process.

We work directly with your patient and their regular GP to ensure every application meets ATO requirements. Your team remains focused on delivering care, while our experienced case managers handle the process with compassion and professionalism.

There are no contracts, no fees for practices, and no administrative burden placed on your staff.


Better Outcomes for Patients and Practices

When patients are presented with a transparent and ethical funding option, they’re more likely to proceed with treatment. This leads to higher acceptance rates, fewer missed opportunities, and improved health outcomes—without compromising your ethical standards.


Real Patient Impact: Nicole’s Story

Nicole came to her practitioner with multiple oral health issues, including malocclusion, severe decay, and terminal teeth. The recommended treatment plan—valued at $18,947—was out of reach without financial support.


"It was vital. I would not have been able to have my treatment without the help of Super for Health," she said.

Nicole described the process as "quick, very straightforward, and super easy," and praised her case manager for being "very kind and helpful."

Thanks to Super for Health, Nicole was able to proceed with her comprehensive treatment including dental implants, crowns, and adhesive restoration — all without delay.
