Police Health was established in 1935 in South Australia when a group of police employees set up The South Australian Police Department Employees’ Hospital Fund to help pay for hospital care for them and their families.
In 1996, the fund became Police Health and started offering Extras Cover.
After requests from police unions outside South Australia during the 2000s, Police Health expanded nationally so that employees of the Australian Federal Police and in other states and territories could join the fund.
In 2020, Police Health and Emergency Services Health amalgamated. Cover for emergency health workers is marketed under a separate brand, Emergency Services Health.
Police Health has over 75,000 members across Australia.
