Health Funds at Torquay Smiles
At Torquay Smiles we know that many of our families rely on their Health Insurance Fund to help with their health management. We accept all health funds – swiped through the HICAPS terminal, to claim your benefits – and then you only pay the gap. If you have health insurance, we accept it.
Some health funds have no gap offers – or reduced prices for their members, or may pay a higher percentage when you use the right dentist. And we have listed these below the ones we partner with to save you money.
