Hospital cover
If you need to go to hospital, you can choose your own doctor and avoid long public hospital waiting lists (phew!).
Extras cover
This can take the sting out of everyday health expenses like dental, optical, physio, psychology and potentially even gym membership.
StarterPak
If you're new to health cover, our StarterPak (Basic Plus) combines a range of Hospital and Extras cover without the big price tag.
Why UniHealth?
We’re for the education community
As the health insurance for higher educators and their families, you’re at the heart of everything we do.
We’re for members, not profit
We’ve given more back to members as benefits than the industry average (for over 10 years!).
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 here for good
We're part of Teachers Health, Australia's largest industry health fund, supporting educators for over 70 years.
Who can join?
We’re open exclusively to people in the education community who are (current or former) members of an education union. Families of eligible members are also welcome to join.
