What you need to know

  • Contact Healix before your appointment to request funding for your podiatry care.
  • Healix does not usually require treatment codes, but ISC codes are listed below in case they are requested.
  • Ask Healix for a claim reference and letter of guarantee. The letter should include the authorisation code we need when billing Healix for your care.
  • Email your policy number, claim reference and authorisation code to Email reception before your appointment.
  • Bring your Healix membership details and photo ID to your appointment.
  • While The Foot and Ankle Centre can accept self-referrals, your insurance provider may require a GP or consultant referral before you attend.
  • Contact Healix directly if you have any doubt about your policy coverage, restrictions, excess or benefit limits.

Things not covered

  • Healix may fund podiatry treatments and orthotic devices where required, but cover depends on your individual policy.
  • If Healix sets a fixed funding amount and your care exceeds that allowance, you will need to self-fund the remaining balance.
  • If Healix does not cover any consultation, treatment, device or excess charge, The Foot & Ankle Centre will invoice you directly.

Obtaining an authorisation code

  • Contact Healix before booking or attending and request approval for podiatry care at The Foot & Ankle Centre.
  • Ask Healix to confirm your policy excess, any treatment restrictions and whether orthotics or medical devices are included.
  • Give Healix the relevant ISC code below if they request a code for your consultation or treatment.
  • Send your policy number and authorisation code to the clinic so we can bill Healix on your behalf.
