FAQs

Hospital cover helps to cover the costs of being treated in hospital. Having Hospital cover means you can be treated in a private hospital and avoid public hospital waiting lists. You get more control over where you're treated, and who treats you.

Each level of AIA Health Insurance Hospital Cover (from Basic to Gold) is differentiated by the list of treatments included. For example, cover to be treated in a private hospital for pregnancy is only available on our Gold Hospital cover.

Extras cover is for treatments that do not take place in a hospital, like visits to the dentist, physiotherapy or optical services. AIA Health Insurance Extras cover can only be taken with Hospital cover. The types of services you can claim under your Extras cover will depend on the level of cover you take out, but essentially this type of cover is to help with services and treatments received out-of-hospital, that aren't covered by Medicare.

Combined cover refers to taking out both Hospital and Extras cover. That's why you'll hear the term 'Hospital and Extras' used so much when it comes to health insurance - it's a popular choice.

Most Australians with private health insurance currently receive a rebate from the Australian Government to help cover the cost of their premiums, either as:

  • A reduction of your AIA Health Insurance premium; or
  • A lump sum payment when lodging your tax return

The level of your rebate depends on your income and your age. To find out how much you could get back, use the Private Health Insurance Rebate Calculator on the Australian Taxation Office website.

The MLS is simply an extra tax that people above a certain income threshold have to pay if they don't have eligible private hospital cover. It's calculated in three tiers for singles and couples/families. Find out more about the MLS on PrivateHealth.gov.au.

The LHC loading is a Government loading on your private hospital cover premiums. It was introduced on 1 July 2000 to encourage people to take out private hospital cover earlier in life and encourage them to maintain it. LHC is a 2% loading on top of your premium for every year you don't have hospital cover after you turn 30. The maximum loading is 70%. Learn more about LHC.
