What means-testing the private health insurance rebate means for you.

The Federal Government is planning to means-test the current private health insurance rebate, affecting many Australians who belong to a private health fund.

Since the introduction of the rebate in 1999, millions of Australians have benefited from the rebate, taking substantial pressure off the public health system.

Approval of the planned revisions to the system will potentially increase private health premiums and affect public hospital waiting lists.

The Australian Health Insurance Association (AHIA) has created an easy to understand explanation of the proposed changes to the private health insurance rebate on their ‘You Should Know’ website with an online video. Click here to view.
