Of 94 fatal acetaminophen overdose cases in which the reasons for exposure are known, most were associated with suicidal intentions. In 25% of the fatal cases, unintentional therapeutic error (n = 10) and intentional misuse without suicidal intent (n = 14) were the reasons for the exposure.
Acupuncture is covered under Medicare if the acupuncturist is also a medical doctor. Many Private Health Funds cover acupuncture given my non-medical acupuncturists (depending on level of cover).
The only things Plan F does NOT cover would be those things that Medicare itself also does not cover, such as: Acupuncture, acupressure and other homeopathic treatments. Routine vision care and eyeglasses. Routine dental care and dentures. Foot care that is not related to medical conditions. Hearing aids and routine hearing tests.
