Health insurance – it’s often viewed as a necessary expense, especially as we enter our golden years. But for those aged 50 and over in Queensland, a shift in perspective is occurring. Aussies are turning this necessary expense into a tool for financial savings and better health coverage. How? By making informed choices and comparing their health cover with alternative health funds.

Shrewd Comparisons Yield Significant Savings
Health Deal has uncovered a powerful trend among Queensland’s over-50s community. Those who’ve compared their current health cover with other options are making a significant dent in their annual premiums. On average, Queenslanders who switched their cover via Health Deal have saved $285 per year – a big boost to your budget! Best of all, you don’t need to cut corners on your health cover. It’s about making smarter decisions and eliminating the cost of excess cover you might not need. By comparing health insurance policies, you can ensure you’re only paying for what truly serves you.

Maximising Savings with the Big Players
