GapSure
nib's GapSure Anaesthetics network has been designed to provide members with greater certainty when it comes to claiming and out of pocket costs. Unique features of the nib GapSure Anaesthetics network include:
Single RVG unit value - The nib GapSure Anaesthetics network applies a single uniformed value of $41 per unit on all MBS Item numbers with ASA RVG unitisation
Known gap - A discretionary $500 known gap is permissible. The application of this known gap is only applicable to procedures with 5 and above RVG base units
The nib GapSure Anaesthetics network is not discretionary. Once registered, the application of the network schedule is applicable to all your nib patients, rather than the current case by case opt-in opt-out nature of current schemes
Plus, the network covers all locations you work from.
