Good health (and flexibility!) starts with Basic Extras
To stretch your health dollar a little further, Basic Extras lets you use your benefits on things you need the most. Enjoy a flexible yearly limit on popular services like physio, remedial massage and psychology, as well as additional limits for optical and dental. Plus, you even get a Healthy Lifestyle benefit (think gym membership) to improve a health condition (including your mental health).
Add Hospital cover for the bigger stuff
While we’re talking health, for more control if any bigger issues crop up, why not add our Basic Hospital (Basic Plus) cover? It’s an affordable option that lets you choose your doctor, be covered in a private hospital for a few services, and in a public hospital for many more.
(On top of this, getting Hospital cover may also help reduce any Lifetime Health Cover loading that you’d otherwise have to pay once you’re over 31.)
Joining is easy as...
1. Choosing the cover that's right for you. (As health cover can be hard, why not book a callback and we can talk you through everything?)
2. Joining online or over the phone in as little as 7 minutes.
3. That's it! And if you switch from another fund, we'll even contact your old health fund for you.
Join by 31 January and skip the 2 & 6 month waits*
Join with Hospital & Extras or Extras-only cover and skip the usual 2 & 6 month waits on everyday Extras. That means you can claim on things like general dental, optical, chiro and physio right away!

We’re for members, not profit
Being not-for-profit, we’re about giving more back to members (not payouts to shareholders).
We’re for care when you need it
As a private patient you can choose your doctor and avoid long public hospital waits (phew!).
We’re for the greater good
We give back to the education community through scholarships, sponsorships, research and more.
