Membership application process

Who completes and submits my application?
You need to complete the application form to activate your membership or to add dependants and send it to your HR manager.

You have the option of submitting the Health Questions section of the application form directly to the Administrator.

Your HR manager or payroll consultant will then process your application with our administrator.

Processing time
Once the application form has been captured by HR, it takes 24 to 48 hours for processing, provided there are no outstanding or additional requirements that need to be completed.

When will I be covered?
Once the application is processed and activated, you will have immediate cover unless the commencement date indicates otherwise. Waiting periods may apply.
