Private Health Insurance
Private health insurance in Australia isn’t mandatory, but it can come in very handy in various ways. Having a private hospital cover can mean avoiding public waiting lists, access to private providers and greater choice and flexibility about when and where you receive care.
Having said that, let’s face it, it is expensive. In fact, the price of private health insurance increases every year, generally on the 1st of April. In 2023, the average price increase was 2.9%.
However, not having it may also mean that you are paying additional tax in the form of a Medicare levy surcharge.
Whether it is something that you are considering or if you already have a cover in place, it doesn’t hurt to compare.
