The Essential health insurance plan

Our Essential plan covers you for most eligible hospital fees, including eligible specialist fees.

You'll also be covered for parental accommodation if your child is a patient and is 12 years old or under. It also offers wider cover than on our Core plan such as diagnostic tests and outpatient psychiatry.
