ExtrasMate is not a medical provider. We don't diagnose or recommend specific practitioners or treatments; we organise and show information so you can choose for yourself. The savings come from your private health rebate and the provider's own pricing, not from coupons we issue.

What to compare

Before you book, compare these.

  1. Know who does what

    Dietitians cover eating, diabetes educators cover glucose monitoring and daily management, and exercise physiologists cover exercise. They often work together.

  2. Check credentials

    Look for APD for dietitians, ADEA's CDE credential for diabetes educators, and ESSA accreditation for exercise physiologists.

  3. Bring your results

    Bring recent blood test results and your medication list from your GP so the advice fits you.

  4. Ask fees and rebates separately

    Ask the per-visit fee, then check your Extras. Not every insurer covers diabetes education.

You might also ask

Can I use Medicare?
If you have a chronic condition, ask your GP whether a chronic condition management plan suits you; it can give Medicare rebates for some allied health visits. Using Extras alone usually needs no referral.
When shouldn't I wait?
Chest pain, trouble breathing, sudden slurred speech or weakness on one side: call 000 now. Blood sugar that keeps running very high or low, or feeling dizzy and unwell: see a GP promptly.
How do I find the right care and spend less?
First work out what kind of care you need and who provides it, then compare nearby providers' prices and what your cover pays. We list local providers who accept private health cover, with registration you can check, and you choose.
Can I use ExtrasMate without private health insurance?
Yes. The service guide and provider search are free for everyone; you just pay the provider yourself.
Once I've chosen, how do I know if Extras will pay?
Ask the provider for the item number and price, then check in your insurer's app or by phone. Or add us on WeChat and we'll check for you.
Is a provider offer the same as an Extras rebate?
No. Rebates are paid by your insurer under your policy; offers are discounts from the provider. Their conditions differ, so confirm each.
What can you do on WeChat? Can you book for me?
Yes. We can explain your policy's conditions, compare providers, find offers that apply and book for you, free.

This is a service guide, not an online diagnosis. A qualified professional decides what suits you. In an emergency or if you're seriously unwell, call 000.
