177 Trimmer Parade, Seaton SA 5023Physiotherapy for Police Health Members in Seaton
Police Health accepted — claim on the spot
One comprehensive level of cover, no tiers to decipher.
UpPlus Physiotherapy in Seaton treats Police Health members and claims at reception through HICAPS, so your rebate comes off immediately and you pay only the gap. No referral is needed to book.
Policing is physically demanding work with a high injury rate, and Police Health's cover is built around that rather than around a general population.
Claiming your Police Health rebate at UpPlus
We claim at reception through HICAPS, so your Police Health rebate is deducted immediately and you pay only the difference by card. Nothing is posted, nothing is reimbursed weeks later, and you leave with the claim already settled.
- Bring your fund card — the physical card or the one in your fund's app.
- No referral required. Physiotherapy is a direct-access profession in Australia.
- Pay the gap only, by card, on the day.
- Tell us if you are near your annual limit so we can plan treatment around it.

How Police Health extras handle physiotherapy
Police Health is unusual in that it offers a single, comprehensive level of cover rather than a ladder of tiers — everyone is on the top product. In practice that means physiotherapy benefits are consistently strong and there is no tier to check, which removes the question most members of other funds have to ask before booking.
Annual limits still apply, so the number worth knowing is how much of yours remains for the calendar year.
Who Police Health covers
Police Health is a not-for-profit restricted fund for sworn and unsworn police, their families and retired officers. It also runs Emergency Services Health for the wider emergency services community.
Emergency Services Health is run by Police Health for the wider emergency services community, and claims the same way.
What we treat
Our Seaton clinic on Trimmer Parade sees back and neck pain, shoulder and knee problems, sporting injuries, post-operative rehabilitation, work injuries and persistent pain. Alongside hands-on treatment we offer dry needling, shockwave therapy and hydrotherapy, and we see patients from Grange, West Lakes, Findon, Fulham Gardens and Port Adelaide.
Police Health physiotherapy questions
Do I need to check which tier I'm on?
Police Health offers one comprehensive level of cover rather than tiers, so there is no tier to check. You will still have an annual physiotherapy limit — that is the figure worth knowing.
Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist?
No. Physiotherapy is a primary contact profession in Australia, so you can book directly with us. A GP referral only becomes relevant when the treatment is funded by Medicare, DVA or WorkCover rather than your private extras.
What if I have already used my annual physiotherapy limit?
You can still be treated — you simply pay the full fee for those visits with no rebate. Tell us if you are close to your limit and we will plan your treatment around it, which usually means spacing visits and giving you more to do at home between them.
Do waiting periods apply to physiotherapy?
Usually yes, on a new policy or after an upgrade. Extras waiting periods for physiotherapy are commonly two months, though this varies by fund and by policy. Your fund can tell you the exact date you become eligible.
Contacting Police Health
We can tell you our fee. Only Police Health can tell you your rebate, your remaining annual limit and whether any waiting period still applies — so if you want to know your exact out-of-pocket before you book, they are the ones to ask.
