Flexible Extras. More you.
One size doesn’t fit all when it comes to staying healthy. That’s why our Basic Extras cover lets you use more of your benefits on services that help you look after yourself. Enjoy a flexible yearly limit on things like physio, remedial massage, and psychology, on top of additional limits for optical and dental. You even get a Healthy Lifestyle benefit to use on gym membership or personal training#.
Look after the bigger things with Hospital cover
What about if you tore a tendon or need your wisdom teeth surgically removed? Our Basic Hospital (Basic Plus) cover is a lower-cost option that lets you choose your doctor, be covered in a private hospital for a few services and in a public hospital for many more.
Getting Hospital cover when you're younger can help you avoid paying more for it later (as Lifetime Health Cover loading applies when you're over 31).
Joining is as easy as...
1. Choosing the cover that's right for you. (As health cover can be hard, why not book a callback and we can talk you through it?)
2. Joining online or over the phone in as little as 7 minutes.
3. That's it! And if you switch from another fund, we'll even contact your old health fund for you.
Join by 31 January and skip the 2 & 6 month waits*
Join with Hospital & Extras or Extras-only cover and skip the usual 2 & 6 month waits on everyday Extras. That means you can claim on things like general dental, optical, chiro and physio right away!
