Kids covered to 31

Kids covered to 31
We’re helping you keep your kids covered for longer

Knowing your kids’ health is protected is one of the main reasons for having private health insurance. And knowing that you’re able to keep those who depend on you the most on your cover for longer is important.

That’s why we’re now offering cover to adult dependants – whether they’re students or working – right up until they turn 31.

We’re making the most of new Federal Government legislation that allows health funds to cover adult dependants for longer – making things easier for young adults and their parents.

From 1 April 2022, we’re offering cover to adult kids – whether they are students or working – right up until their 31st birthday.

Full-time students can remain covered for free and working kids can remain covered for an additional premium (less than the amount they’d pay for an equivalent single person cover).

Who is classified as a dependant

From 1 April, a dependant student means a person who:

(a) is between 22 and 30 years of age (inclusive);

(b) is a full-time student at school, college or university in Australia;

(c) is unmarried and not in a de facto relationship;

(d) is primarily reliant on the Principal Member or their Partner (listed on the Policy) for maintenance and support; and

(e) is related to the Principal Member or their Partner as a child, step-child, foster child or other child that the Principal Member or their Partner has legal guardianship over

 

 

 

 

From 1 April, a dependent non-student is a person who:

(c) is unmarried and not in a de facto relationship;

(d) is not a dependant student; and

(e) is primarily reliant on the Principal Member (or Principal Member’s Partner listed on the Policy) for maintenance and support; and

(f) is insured under an Extended Family Membership or Single Parent Extended Family Membership.
