Frequently Asked Questions

How can SuperCare help?

SuperCare may be able to help if you don’t have private health insurance, can’t cover the cost of treatment or the gap not covered by insurance, or want to help fund treatment for an immediate family member who doesn’t have accessible superannuation themselves.
What are the benefits of using SuperCare?

SuperCare manages your application from start to finish, liaises with your treatment provider and the ATO on your behalf, and takes on the risk of any application audit, so the process is designed to be efficient and stress-free.
Who is eligible to apply?

All Australian citizens and permanent residents with superannuation may be eligible to apply through the Early Release of Superannuation (ERS) program.
Can I use my super to help a family member?

Yes — this can include your partner, children, parents, and other immediate family. If your application relates to someone outside your immediate family, a SuperCare consultant can advise you directly.
What will it cost?

There are no upfront costs to start an application, and SuperCare only charges a fee once your application is approved.
What happens if my application is declined?
