Proven Health Insurance Value
As further independent proof of GMHBA's value, in August 2008 a leading consumer magazine compared hospital insurance covers from 16 health insurance funds. They based their 'Best Buys' on: price, conditions, restrictions and benefits. GMHBA won more 'Best Buy' mentions than any other health insurance fund.

^ Premiums for singles are usually half the family premiums quoted.

* We recommend you confirm premiums, waiting periods, conditions and cover details with the individual fund. Eg. Some hospital covers can also cover the cost of ambulance trips while some extras covers may refund ambulance subscriptions. Premiums are base rates without any Lifetime Health Cover loadings.

** Open funds available to anyone. For a complete private health insurance database of every health insurance cover from every fund and every premium possible, we recommend the free independent health insurance comparison service at privatehealth.gov.au Or you can have a web chat with a GMHBA staff member who can help you access helpful information you need in real-time with absolutely NO SALES PRESSURE. That's the way we work. We're here to help, not just to sell whatever we can because we're for people NOT for profit!

#All rates include the 30% rebate deduction and have been sourced from privatehealth.gov.au. Rates are valid as of 7 May 2008. GMHBA rate include the direct debit discount.
