SHI premium to increase twice as much as salaries

This year, insurance contributions for most households will grow by almost 150 US dollars per year. Minister of Public Health Greg Hunt has given the agreement to privately funded insurance companies to raise their insurance rates by an annual 3.95 percent as of April 1. In the past year, the rate was increased by 4.84 percent.

Government estimates are that this will cost a 1 individual $1. 40 more each weekly ($73 for the year). Regarding familys, the government is expecting them to be paying about $2. 75 per weeks extras ($143 for the year). "Turnbull government reform to ease the burden on personal healthcare today has brought the smallest rate changes in almost two decades," Mr Hunt said.

This should not, however, contribute much to improving the affordable nature of sickness insurance, as the almost 4 per cent increase is twice as high as the employee's mean salary increase and other changes in the costs of living. However, the increase in sickness insurance is not expected to be as high as the increase in the costs of social security contributions. In the past year, salary increase and headline inflation increased by around 2 percent.

"Tod and tax are no longer the only sureties in our lives - even huge increases in the prices of medical insurance have entered the association," says Sophie Walsh, insurance expert at finder.com. au, a website comparing prices. "More than twice the pay rise rates, it' s more important than ever to look around and make sure you get the best offer not to pay for coverage you don't need.

"The extensive privately -financed healthcare insurance reform we already introduced in October last year has already had an effect and will further reduce our cost base. "Included in the program are $1.1 billion in cuts from replacement to prosthesis and $6.4 billion each year in personal medical insurance to keep premium levels reasonable.

Of the four biggest privately owned insurance companies, the HCF rate rise (3.39 percent) is the lowes. The Medibank and its affiliate Ahms will raise their median rates by 3.88 percent. Looks like he' ll get 3.93 percent more bonuses from Mr. Sib. The 3.99 percent rise at Bupa is the most costly and higher than the government's announced 3.95 percent averages.

"Australia has one of the highest lifespans in the planet and one of the best health care providers in the world...but that comes at a price," said Dr Dwayne Crombie, Bupa CEO. Bupa would estimate every Wednesday that the rate hike alone would add $2 per additional dollar per weeks - 43 percent more than the government's projected $1.40 rise.

Bupa insurants are paying an extra $4 per annum - 45 percent more than the annual mean ($2.75). "In the last 12-month period, personal healthcare spending has risen by around 5 percent," he said. "This cost is largely caused by medically -induced hyperinflation and an increasing incidence of patients undergoing treatments.

" Higher bonuses are also caused by an "ageing populace, increasing incidence of chronical diseases...and the expense of new technologies," said Mark Fitzgibbon, CEO of us. "And he also warns that " as with retirement, individuals must take more accountability for their lifelong health costs".
