Planning a trip to hospital
  • Why have health insurance

    Private health insurance offers you peace of mind, potential tax savings and, frequently, earlier treatment

  • Outpatient costs and Medicare

    Find out the fee difference for outpatients and inpatients, and who pays for what

  • What is the (medical) Gap?

    When being admitted into hospital, you are likely to hear about “gap fees” or out-of-pocket expenses, and it’s important to understand what this means

  • What is a pre-existing condition?

    You generally cannot immediately claim for treatments on pre-existing conditions, so find out what this means in real terms

  • Public hospitals

    If admitted in a public hospital, you may be asked if you want to be a private or public patient

  • Informed financial consent

    Before agreeing to surgery and procedures, you may be asked to sign a letter of informed financial consent. Make sure you know what that means
