St Luke's Health accepted — claim on the spot
A Tasmanian fund that claims perfectly well in Adelaide.
UpPlus Physiotherapy in Seaton treats St Luke's 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.
A Tasmanian fund claims perfectly well in South Australia. Extras cover is national, not state-based.
Claiming your St Luke's Health rebate at UpPlus
We claim at reception through HICAPS, so your St Luke's 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.

New patients can also use our initial consultation offer — terms are on that page.
How St Luke's Health extras handle physiotherapy
St Luke's is small, member-owned and consistently well regarded for service. Its extras cover physiotherapy with a benefit per consultation and an annual limit set by your tier, and it applies wherever in Australia you are treated.
If you have moved from Tasmania to Adelaide and kept the policy, nothing changes about how you claim — we swipe the card at reception and the rebate comes off immediately.
Who St Luke's Health covers
St Luke's Health is a Tasmanian not-for-profit fund, founded in 1953 and now open to members nationally.
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.
St Luke's Health physiotherapy questions
I moved from Tasmania — does my St Luke's cover still work?
Yes. St Luke's extras cover is national, so you can be treated in Adelaide and claim on the spot in the normal way.
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 St Luke's Health
We can tell you our fee. Only St Luke's 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.
