Show Notes

Private health insurance premiums in Australia are increasing by 4.41% on average, the highest rate in over nine years, taking effect in two days. Health funds justify the increase by citing surged costs and $30 billion in member benefits paid out in the past year. Consumers can potentially save hundreds of dollars by comparing policies on privatehealth.gov.au during peak recruiting season when health funds offer deals such as up to two months free coverage.
