    Medicare Safety Net

    **Mods please feel free to move if I have posted in the wrong section

    I'm trying to get the most financial benefit out of the medicare safety net this time around but for the life of me I can't remember if the safety net is for a calendar year or financial year.

    Anyone have any idea??

    TIA,
    Dan.

    Calendar - we are in the same boat! If I pay my OB fees now we get more back bcos it will push us over the safety net, but if we pay it next year it will also push us over earlier and we will get max rebates for the majority of the year.
