Compare Every Insurer 

Compare all Australian health insurers and every policy

• There are 32 registered insurers in Australia:
  • 23 are open funds
  • 9 are restricted funds (for members of particular professions or workplaces).
• At present, registered health insurers also sell their policies under 18 other brands. Those brands are not registered health insurers, but their policies are provided by a registered insurer.
• The Australian Government requires private health insurers to create a Private Health Information Statement (PHIS) for every policy.
• A PHIS provides a summary of key product features and prices.
• Private health insurers are required to keep the PHIS up-to-date and they are required to notify the Australian Government and policy holders of any changes.
• The Australian Government makes available the latest PHIS for every policy from every registered health insurer.
• We compare all Australian health insurers and every policy because we use the PHIS data provided by the Australian Government.

Cheapest Policy Guaranteed

Compare all Private Health Insurance Statements, cheapest to most expensive

• The Australian Government regulates health insurance prices.
• Private health insurers must apply to the Australian Government to change prices.
• Price changes approved by the Government must be reflected in an updated Private Health Insurance Statement (PHIS).
• A PHIS provides a summary of key product features and prices.
• Private health insurers are required to have a PHIS for every policy.
• Private health insurers are required to keep the PHIS up-to-date.
• We guarantee the cheapest policy because we use the price from the latest PHIS.
• A PHIS must show the monthly price before the Private Health Insurance Rebate, Age-based Discount and Lifetime Health Cover Loading are applied.
• The PHIS price may not be the price you ultimately pay. Other factors can affect the price you will pay. They are:
  • Private Health Insurance Rebate (Rebate)
  • Age-based Discount (Discount)
  • Lifetime Health Cover Loading (Loading)
  • Any applicable incentives or promotions.
  • Certain policies with 2 or more adult dependants.
• The Rebate, Discount and Loading vary depending on your individual situation. The price you pay for health insurance is determined by the PHIS price, as well as the Rebate, Discount and Loading. Unless the Rebate, Discount and Loading are also calculated, the PHIS price may not be the price you pay.
• Some insurers may also offer incentives or promotions for the policies they offer, such as a limited number of weeks free.  We do not calculate or apply any applicable incentives or promotions. 
• We do not include price adjustment if it occurs for policies in the same product range where there are two or more adult dependents.
• The information and prices the healthslips.com.au Calculator gives you are based on the information you provide and depend on the accuracy of that information.
• While our Calculator will show you the cheapest policies, you should consider your needs carefully before committing to a policy. Some cheaper policies may not be suitable for your needs or could be less value for money in the long term. The information on healthslips.com.au is for general information only and should not be taken as constituting professional advice.
