Pay now and save

Updated 6 March 2024

Paying for your health insurance ahead of a premium increase can be a great way to save in the long term!

Here's your prepay info ahead of the premium increase effective from 1 April 2024:

• How much can I prepay?
• How do I calculate my prepay amount?
• What's the prepay deadline?
• How can I prepay?
• How can I check when I'm paid up to?

You can prepay your cover for up to 12 months via a one-off manual payment. Also, the maximum amount you can pay is 12 months from the payment date. It's up to you how much of the 12-month maximum you lock in before the next premium increase.

Here are the steps:

Use the Online Member Services premium calculator to check how much to pay up to a given date, or how far a given dollar amount will take you.

Here's how:

• Log in
• Go to Payments
• Click Premium calculator
• Either Calculate amount or Calculate date
• Click Calculate.

You can pay by credit card (via Online Member Services), BPAY, our app and at our Member Care Counters. Here's how:
