Use Your Super to Cover Medical Costs You Can’t Put Off

Medical bills can pile up fast—especially when public waitlists are long and private clinics need upfront payment. If you’re in Canberra and struggling to fund essential treatment, early release of your superannuation may be a viable option. We help ACT residents legally access their super for approved medical needs, offering clear guidance and reliable support from start to finish.

Common Treatments People Fund in Canberra

Canberra locals use super for a wide variety of medical reasons. Here are some of the most common:

Mental health support
The ACT has some of the highest rates of mental illness in the country. Long wait times for psychiatric care lead many to seek private treatment—at a high cost.
IVF and fertility services
Around 1 in 6 Australian couples need assistance to conceive. Superannuation can help offset the steep cost of IVF, which is rarely covered in full by Medicare.

Dental procedures
From emergency wisdom tooth removal to full-mouth reconstructions, dental expenses often hit hard and fast. Super can help fill the gap.

Weight loss medications
With demand surging for treatments like Ozempic and Mounjaro, we’re seeing more clients in Canberra release super to fund prescribed weight loss support.
Hair loss and gender affirmation procedures
These treatments are often overlooked as medical necessities—but they’re eligible under ATO rules when tied to mental health or quality of life concerns.

We handle the coordination, paperwork, and submission—so you can focus on the care itself.

What Makes Us Different

We’re not a call centre. We’re a small, dedicated team with years of experience and a deep understanding of what compassionate release requires.

Local insight: We understand the ACT’s healthcare system—public and private.
No fluff: Transparent pricing and honest expectations.
End-to-end help: From GP and psych referrals to submitting the final application.

The Situation in Canberra

Private specialists and clinics are accessible in Canberra—but only if you can afford the upfront costs. Public services, meanwhile, are often stretched.

Whether it’s accessing therapy faster, getting a long-delayed dental procedure done, or starting IVF this cycle instead of next year—super can help make it happen. And we’re here to make that possible.
