Frequently asked questions
My patient is considering participating in one of HBF's health support programs. Will HBF keep me informed on my patient's progress?
The intention of all HBF health support programs is to complement the care provided by a member's usual health care team. We encourage participants to nominate a healthcare provider to receive communications and, with an individual participant's consent, we will communicate with healthcare teams to keep them informed of an individual's progress and outcomes.
What is the cost for participating in an HBF health support program?
The COACH Program, Osteoarthritis Healthy Weight for Life, and GLA:D are fully covered for members who hold eligible HBF hospital cover and meet the programs’ eligibility criteria. See individual program pages for more information on eligibility criteria.
