The Australian Government Rebate on private health insurance

On 1 July 2012, the Australian Government Rebate on private health insurance became income tested. This means that the amount of rebate you receive on your health cover will is affected by a variety of factors, including your age, your income and the number of children you have covered under your policy. The Medicare Levy Surcharge, an additional tax on individuals who earn over $84,000 and do not have private hospital cover, has also increased.
