CBHS International has partnered with Cub Care to provide consults with paediatric emergency physicians for our members* with children aged newborn to 15 years. A paediatrician is a doctor who specialises in treating infants and children.
- Senior specialist doctors for kids that you’d normally only find in a specialist children’s hospital.
- Access anywhere in Australia, seven days a week, after-hours, within a few minutes.
- Video-based consults with ongoing support for the evening via a virtual clinic.
- Avoid the emergency department or long wait for an after-hours GP in a car.
Cub Care is FREE for most CBHS International Health members*. To avoid high out-of-pocket costs DO NOT go to a public hospital emergency department unless it is an emergency.
An emergency is any medical problem that causes extreme pain, severe blood loss, or could cause death or permanent injury if not treated quickly. An example of an emergency is struggling to breathe, going into early labour (childbirth) or being hit by a car. If you have an emergency, call 000.
