HEALTH INSURANCE ACT 1973 - SECT 10AE

Confirmation of family composition

  (1)   If the Chief Executive Medicare is satisfied that, apart from this section, a registered family would be, or would be likely soon to become, entitled to increased benefits under subsection   10AC or 10ACA in respect of a calendar year, the Chief Executive Medicare must request that the person who registered the family or another family member state, in a manner approved by the Chief Executive Medicare, whether or not:

  (a)   the composition of the family remains, or (if the year has already ended) remained, in that year, as originally registered under section   10AA; or

  (b)   if, after the registration, the Chief Executive Medicare has been notified of a change in the family composition--the composition of the family remains, or (if that year has already ended) remained, in that year, as last notified to the Chief Executive Medicare.

  (2)   Until a family member provides the information sought under subsection   (1), then, despite section   10AC or 10ACA, increased benefits are not payable in respect of the family members in respect of the year for which the confirmation was sought.
