It’s Time To Review and Compare Your Health Insurance

Even doctors can get overcharged by $130 a month on Health Insurance and end up paying thousands of dollars too much a year for it, as this recent story from the South Coast Daily Register shows.

Nowra doctor, Paul Thesinger, decided to compare his current health insurance to the market and what he discovered shocked him.

Paul found that his current health provider had the same coverage he was receiving under a different name and at a lower cost by $130 a month!

Analysis by consumer advocacy group CHOICE has found some premiums increased by more than 10% on 1-April and in one case as much as 45%. That’s over $800 for some unlucky policy holder.

The benefits of having private health insurance mean that you are able to choose your own specialist, hospital, opt for a private room, and decreased waiting times for elective treatments.

So, to get the $400 cash back over 37 months, I would have to sign up with HCF for a minimum of 3 years, but I don't know how much HCF will increase their premiums by over that period. My guess is that it will be a whole lot more than $100pa. Cash-back deals always have a catch, to the benefit of the provider.
