What is an open insurer?

Reviewed and updated 26 February 2025

An open insurer or health fund is open to the general public, rather than offering membership to a particular profession or workplace only.

Anyone in Australia who has a Medicare Card can join an open insurer and take out private health cover.

As at February 2025, there were 35 open health insurers in Australia.
