Eligibility checks
How to know if your child can get CDBS this year.
Each January we check if your child is eligible for dental benefits. We keep checking during the year. If they’re eligible we’ll send you a letter. If you’re not sure, you can either:
- check your Medicare online account through myGov
- call the Medicare general enquiries line.
There are other ways to get help with child dental costs. Read on the Department of Health website about public dental services in your state or territory.
