This policy's other options
Every state, household and excess the insurer filed for this policy, with the premium before the rebate.
Where this comes from
Policy details come from the PrivateHealth.gov.au dataset published by the Private Health Insurance Ombudsman on data.gov.au (release of 1 Oct 2026), licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Australia. Statement I21/DIMJ1D, filed by HCF, issued 1 Apr 2026.
† Monthly premium: the premium the insurer filed with the Private Health Insurance Ombudsman for this state, household and excess, before the Australian Government rebate. Answer the income and age questions and every figure becomes the premium after your rebate, with any Lifetime Health Cover loading added to the hospital share (the rebate never applies to the loading) and the age-based discount taken off it where the policy offers one. Insurers may quote a different payment frequency and round each step; check the figure with the insurer before you join.
No insurer pays to appear on this list or for its place in it. LookFirst does not say which tier or policy suits you. The filters are your own questions.
