Southern Cross Information

Southern Cross do not allow The Skin Hub to submit claims for routine appointments, including full skin checks.

For single spot checks, multi spot checks and surgeries, we can submit a claim on your behalf. For full body skin checks, we can submit a claim if you book an appointment due to particular concerns.

Our practitioners take digital photographs using a mobile phone owned by The Skin Hub and photographs are uploaded directly into your patient file on a secure app called Dermengine. The photographs are not stored on the mobile phone. Do you consent to our medical professional checking your skin and taking digital photography to assess lesions of concern? Please note that you are welcome to view or request a copy of your images for your records at any time.*
