policies which could save some families thousands of dollars in premiums has been rolled out.
Bupa Health Insurance managing director Chris Carroll said the change would help ensure more young Australians had greater access to private health insurance, while remaining affordable. “The pandemic prompted many young people to re-evaluate what’s important to them, and their health and wellbeing have emerged as clear priorities,” Carroll said.
“More and more young adults, particularly in capital cities, are staying at home with their parents to help ease the burden of cost pressures while studying or establishing early careers. This age increase is one way that we can help make healthcare more affordable for those younger members.”Medibank and AHM have also brought in the changes, which were enacted on August 18.
