What is private health insurance?

In Australia, Medicare provides health care for citizens and permanent residents. By taking out private health insurance you can get more health care options, peace of mind and it may even help avoid tax.

Hospital & Extras

Hospital cover gives you access to private hospitals and choice of doctor, while Extras cover helps with the costs of services not normally covered by Medicare, such as dental and physiotherapy.

Lifetime health cover

Under Lifetime Health Cover (LHC), you'll pay a 2% loading on top of the normal premiums for each year you don't have hospital cover by July 1 following your 31st birthday.

LHC increases by 2% for every year you don't join, up to a maximum of 70%, and can only be removed after 10 years of continuous hospital cover. This isn't just with Apia health insurance, but every health fund.

For more information, call us on 13 50 50 or visit the ATO website at www.ato.gov.au

Medicare Levy Surcharge

The Medicare levy surcharge (MLS) is levied on Australian taxpayers who do not have an appropriate level of private hospital cover and earn above a certain income.

The base income threshold (under which you are not liable to pay the MLS) is $93,000 for singles and $186,000 for families.

If your taxable income is above the MLS thresholds and you don't have an appropriate level of private hospital cover, you may have to pay the MLS.

Find more information, including how to calculate your income for MLS purposes, visit the ATO website at www.ato.gov.au
