WHY YOU NEED PRIVATE HEALTH?
People who have private health insurance have the peace of mind that comes with knowing they are covered for the best available medical treatments when and if they become necessary.

Private health insurance also:
Gives you the option of being treated by your own doctor.
Means shorter waiting times for elective surgery.
Allows you more control over when and where to be treated.
Takes the strain off the public hospital system and frees up government funds to upgrade hospitals.
Helps with services not covered by Medicare such as chiropractic, dental, physiotherapy, optical, dietary advice and some alternative therapies.
