Understanding DVA Exercise Physiology
The difference between white and gold DVA cards
The main difference between the white and gold DVA cards is the level of cover provided.
The DVA white card is only condition specific. This means it can be used for referred conditions. As you need a referral from your doctor, this will state what area or condition is being treated and this will be reflected on the white card. Anything outside of this area can still be treated but may need a separate referral or will be paid out of pocket and not covered.
The DVA gold card can be used for any condition or treatment. This can range from shoe fittings, orthotics, exercise prescription or treatment of any injuries. There are no limitations imposed on gold card cover, compared to the white card cover offered.
