nib Agreement Hospitals aim to provide the best level of healthcare and to protect nib members from large out of pocket costs for their time in hospital. nib’s agreement network currently covers most private hospitals in Australia, ensuring that nib customers across the country have access to high quality care no matter where they live.
All nib Agreement Hospitals are fully accredited under national standards, hold appropriate state hospital licences and are fully insured with Public Liability Insurance, Professional Indemnity Insurance and Medical Malpractice Insurance (only where the hospital employs doctors).
Please note: Honeysuckle Health now manages nib's Hospital, MediGap, GapSure, Clinical Partners, Health Care at Home and First Choice network agreements. Learn more, opens in a new tab.

From November 2019, nib has been introducing upfront claiming rules to identify and decline inappropriate claims or claim items. This ensures providers claim correctly and as per the HPPA, prevents auditing, and improves our members' experience. If you have a claim or claim item declined, view the reference guide that may assist you in identifying the cause.
You will then need to resubmit the claim when billed correctly. If you have any questions, please contact our Hospital Support team on 1300 853 530 (option 3, 2).
