A guide to claiming your TENS hire or purchase on private health insurance

The great news is, lots of private health insurance providers offer rebates on TENS machines, but whether you are eligible will depend on your level of cover.

You may be covered under 'Pain Relief by Device' or 'Heath Aids and Appliances' or via general maternity cover. 

Whilst some providers may just require a receipt, it is worth noting that most now require a letter of support from a medical professional for use of the device. We recommend you contact your insurer to confirm cover as well as claiming requirements prior to booking your hire as in most cases, should they require a referral, it must be dated prior to your receipt from us. 

The details below are subject to change, so we recommend you contact your health fund for specific details relevant to your level of cover. If you do not see your health fund listed below, please contact your fund for specific information on your eligibility. 

HBF

Our provider number is B33223. 

NIB

Rebates are available for purchased TENS machines, but not hires. We recommend checking your level of coverage as purchasing an Elle TENS Plus may be more cost effect.

Medibank

Although there is the option to claim online, Medibank have advised that claims are best to be done in person at a Medibank store or via post. 

You are required to submit your completed claim form and the original invoices or receipts, as well as a referral from a medical practitioner supporting the use of the device.

Submit the supplied invoice

BUPA Provider number is EP01366 (Classifed as Health Aid and Appliance)

 

Each provider is different, so should you have any difficulties claiming, we recommend first contacting your provider directly to discuss their requirements and your eligibility for claiming.

If you have any questions about your invoice or claiming, you can reach out to us at hello@blissbirth.com.au

The TENS machine was amazing in the early stages of my labour. It helped me focus and calm down with each contraction and made the pain feel at ease. The feeling of the tens machine definitely helped me feel more calm with each contraction increasing in pain. Would 100% recommend!!

Absolute life saver

Being able to rent a tens machine at lower cost was really helpful. I live in remote Australia and did not have access to one without buying one myself which I didn’t want to do as this may be my last birth. I didn’t have a tens machine for my first birth and really wanted to try this for pain management to avoid having an epidural, as in my previous labour the epidural failed. The tens machine worked wonders for me and got me through my second labour with gas for pain relief as well. It comes in a lovely bag you get to keep and you post it back after your birth. Very convenient and ships Australia wide perfect for women in rural and remote areas who may lack resources. Thank you :)

Amazing

Not only was the tens machine a game changer in what was my fourth labour, but hiring it from Bliss Birth was so easy. Cannot recommend highly enough, this little machine got me through 90% of my labour without much fuss.

Labour TENS Hire

Loved it!!!

I didn't use a TENS for my first birth but after using it for my second birth I would recommend the TENS to anyone about to embark on their labour experience.

I used the TENS in early stages of labour and half way through active labour where I Unfortunately had to remove it due to baby needing a clip for monitoring and it Unfortunately interferes with this monitoring. But once the TENS was off I definitely needed pain relief to get through contractions. I wished I could have kept the TENS on because it was amazing.

Highly recommended Bliss Birth for hire too. Delivery was prompt and arrived well before the date I put for hire and the return process was easy with the prepaid postage bag and the reminders to ensure it was returned on time.

Absolutely amazing

Fantastic service! The Tens was amazing and helped me have a drug free birth! Would recommend your service to anyone having a baby!

Tens machine

The tens machine was helpful to me for the start and middle of my labour, it was useful to manage the pain and distract me from contractions.

Definitely a must have.

Such a great service! Thank you so much.
This helped me get to 6cms before tapping out and needing an Epidural due to exhaustion. I believe if I wasn’t so tired and worn out I could’ve used this all the way to 10cms.
Even if you are thinking about trying this for labour, just get it. Even if it gets you halfway 🫶🏻

Tens a Lifesaver

Second time using the tens machine. Had an absolute dream of a labour and birth. I couldn’t have had the experience I did without the tens machine. An Unmedicated, natural birth as a result. It really makes the labour more bearable. Thank you

I don’t know how I would have gotten through labour without it!

I absolutely loved the tens machine! I don’t know how I would have gotten through the contractions especially past the 5 cm mark. Did the birth completely unmedicated just with the tens machine and the birthing pool towards the end. Delivery of the tens machine was fast and reliable. Return still pending but can imagine it will go smoothly

Great service

Really easy and quick service to get the machine. Definitely helped with labour and so happy I hired it. Super easy return as well- a bonus when you’re in those early newborn trenches.

Tens machine hire

With ease of ordering on the internet, prepaid return parcel and prompt response to communication, bliss birth was amazing to deal with. Would recommend!

This worked so well!!

Managed to labour at home 13hrs+ and into the hospital with just the tens for over 19hrs total. Highly effective and would recommend to anyone about to have a baby.
The bliss birth process of ordering etc. was seemless and uncomplicated too

Very Helpful!

I was skeptical about how much a TENS machine will work but hired one anyway. Can confirm, it was very helpful. Whilst it does not take away the pain (Back labour) it was a great tool to reduce/focus on something else during contractions. Absolutely get it on as early as possible. Hire process was easy and return process is even easier!

Best money spent!

The TENS machine was amazing during my labour! Was easy to use and set up. It really helped me through my whole labour till almost the end. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking about getting one, it is well worth it.

Absolute lifesaver

My student midwife recommended a tens machine and I’m so glad I had one for my labour. I used it right up until giving birth - about 12 hours. Very easy and intuitive to use. I’d highly recommend this. And bliss birth made the process so easy and smooth. Very quick delivery, clear instructions on how to use the machine and prepaid return postage. Well done bliss birth!

Great flexibility

The process was seamless and the product did what I expected it to. Didn't know how long the tens machine would help with the pain but it did a good 24hrs before we got to hospital and the gas and air took over. The ability to extend when the little one hadn't arrived until over a week after her due date was very reassuring too!

Loved it

Would 10/10 recommend!

Highly recommend

Great price for the length of hire time. Arrived quickly. I used the TENS machine through my labour and believed it really helped me get through.

Bliss Birth is Amazing

Bliss Birth made everything so easy from hiring to returning my TENS. The TENS itself was incredible - I used it for about two and a half hours when I was experiencing hip and back pain in active labour at home as my main form of pain relief and it definitely enabled me to labour at home for longer. I was still wearing it when I arrived at the birth centre and only took it off just before I was entering the bath for a beautiful water birth. Thank you so much Bliss Birth!
