Waiting Periods

Like all health funds, waiting periods may apply when you take out your cover.

You may have to wait if:

  • You’re new to private health insurance
  • You upgrade your cover to include things that weren’t covered before
  • You switch health funds and increase your cover to include things that weren’t covered before.

If you’ve cancelled your membership with another health fund, you’ll need to join us within 60 days to keep up your continuity of cover and not re-serve any applicable waiting periods.
