Broader Health Cover

With Broader Health Cover it's now easier than ever to stay healthy

Australian Unity is committed to providing our members with comprehensive services and programs that focus on preventative health and on-going health and wellness management.

We aim to keep you the healthiest you can be and to help you avoid, where possible, medical intervention or hospital stays.

But, if you do need to visit the hospital, changes introduced in April 2008 by the Australian Government means that private health insurers can now pay claims for some health services to be delivered at home rather than in hospital. This gives you more choices and allows us to expand and improve the benefit and program options we can offer.

No matter if you are well and want to stay that way, or if you do require medical assistance or a stay in hospital we are there with the information, encouragement and support you need to be the healthiest you can be.
