Government Health Insurance

The government presents a new system to facilitate health insurance

The health insurance companies must declare on one page what the consumer is insured for and use a new rating system to make the policy more understandable. Following the new government reform, insurance companies will have to categorize their health policy according to a four-stage system of golden, bronze, silver and base materials starting in April next year.

Insurance companies must also use the usual conditions of health care. Female policy on steroids and bronzes must cover gynecological care, management and repair of ovary and breastcancer. Other methods such as IVF and replacement joints, however, would be covered by golden rating schemes.

It is the primary objective of the new system to make it easy for users to understand the comparative value of health insurance.

Whilst accounts of the functioning of the system up to that point were quite speculative, the government announcement confirming the announcement of the messages affirmed a number of system details: health insurance premium rates will not stop increasing - they will rise by 2% to 5% each year - and these rate hikes do not always mean higher cover or lower ancillary costs.

This has, as already stated, resulted in a number of users either cutting back or giving up their personal health insurance. ACCC has expressed concern about the growing number of policy areas and the rise in exclusion, restriction, excess and co-payment.

Insurance companies may provide these as supplementary benefits, but these must be unlimited if they are provided. "An entirely open system of personal healthcare in which consumers have full power over their decisions is one that will be more powerful and lasting in the future," said Dr David. Whilst the Federal Oppressor generally supported the in-bound actions, they expressed concerns about the government's alleged inaction into low-cost, "scrap" health insurance schemes.
