About Payment Plans
Afterpay, Zip and Humm Payment Options at Mickleham Dental
At Mickleham Dental in Tullamarine, we understand that patients may wish to consider different ways of paying for their dental treatment.
Along with standard payment methods and eligible private health insurance claims, we accept selected third-party payment options including Afterpay, Zip and Humm.
These services may allow eligible patients to pay for approved dental treatment over time, subject to the individual provider’s approval process, eligibility requirements, available spending or credit limits, fees, charges and terms and conditions.
Private Health Insurance & HICAPS
Claim Your Dental Health Insurance On the Spot
Mickleham Dental welcomes patients with all Australian private health insurers that provide eligible dental benefits.
For participating health funds, we can process eligible dental claims on the spot through HICAPS, allowing you to claim your available health fund benefit at the clinic and pay the remaining gap.
This means you generally don’t need to submit the dental claim yourself after your appointment.
