Mid cover

Be covered for most common treatment types in a private hospital, with some exclusions to help keep your premiums down. Co-payments also help reduce the price, whilst still giving you the option to be treated in a single room^{^} if you prefer. GMHBA’s mid cover range gives you top cover for most treatments, without the expense that comes with top level hospital cover.

Dependant Excess Waiver

Whilst you have the option of choosing an excess to help keep your premium down, this excess only applies to adult hospital admissions. No excess applies for child dependants under 21 on GMHBA's Silver Single Parents Hospital cover.

Single Room Option

We understand that sometimes you want the privacy of a single room, but don't want to be paying for something you may not use. Because of this we offer a number of hospital covers that offer partial cover for single rooms. A co-payment of $100 per night applies, up to $700 per admission if you elect to be treated in a single room. If you elect to stay in a shared room, no co-payment applies. Please note, some private hospitals only have single rooms, and co-payments will apply.
