Each April, health insurance funds review and increase their premiums.
Their assessment covers a variety of elements to decide on premium increases.
- The community rating or claiming activity for a product,
- The State consumers reside in; and
- The type of product that is under review.
How do these increase your premiums?
- Pressure – demand for certain services increase and access becomes more difficult.
- Delivery – cost to offer the services increase.
- Ageing – We are all living longer and Australia’s population is ageing.
- Disease – chronic illness is on the rise.
- Innovation – new technology and treatments improve quality of care for patients but usually cost more.
- Government Rebates – the benefits supplied by the Australian government are decreasing every year.
