Low income health care card & Commonwealth seniors health card
There are many benefits to having a health care card. People who are not entitled for the Age Pension
due to being a self-funded retiree are often eligible for a health card.
We can provide an explanation of the differences between the Low Income HCC and the
Commonwealth Seniors HC and navigate you through both the application and renewal processes.
Applying and meeting annual renewal requirements can be a time-consuming process and it can be
difficult to acquire all of the required evidence. We can provide you with a personal consultation and
guide you from the very start right through to the confirmation of the receipt of your entitlement.
