Why private health insurance?

While Australians are entitled to public hospital treatment, there are big advantages to having private health cover

Private cover can provide support for general health and wellbeing, peace of mind and may deliver tax savings for high income earners! Like any form of insurance, private health insurance really shines when people are faced with an unexpected setback – like needing hospital treatment.

Would yoube happy to wait months for public hospital treatment?

A bit about public hospital waiting lists…

We’ve all heard stories about public hospital waiting lists. As a public patient you have little control over when you are treated, who treats you or where you go to hospital.

Here are a few examples of the average wait times for treatment in a public hospital under Medicare

97 days for removal of tonsils
13 days for coronary bypass surgery
110 days for hip replacement surgery
195 days for knee replacement surgery

50% of people on the list waited longer than this

Do you have this kind of money to spare?

Private hospital treatment can be expensive

There’s no denying that private hospital treatment can be very expensive. In fact, without health insurance you could be up for tens of thousands of dollars.

A few examples of what private hospital procedures could cost you without health insurance†

$2,977 for removal of tonsils
$45,917 for coronary bypass surgery
$25,202 for hip replacement surgery
$22,520 for knee replacement surgery
