Is couples health insurance cheaper than buying two singles health cover policies?

It depends on your health fund and the health cover you choose. With HBF, a couples health cover policy just costs double the price of a singles health cover policy (before applying the Australian Government Rebate on Private Health Insurance or Lifetime Health Cover loading).

Can my partner and I just get two single health cover policies?

Yes. As a couple, you have the option of getting couples health insurance (so you’re both covered on the same policy) or a singles health insurance policy each. It’s entirely up to you and what best suits your needs.

If you need pregnancy and birth cover, you can buy a singles health insurance policy with pregnancy and birth, and one without. When your baby arrives, you can then transition to family health cover, so you, your partner and your new baby can all be covered on the same policy.

When do singles need to leave family cover?

If you’re on your parents’ health cover, we will cover you on their policy until you turn 25 provided you’re not married or in a de-facto relationship and are either:

  • studying fulltime, or;
  • earning less than $24,500 per year.
