@Austaxpolicy Around 1.2 million are pensioners. We have received well over 4,000 emails from concerned seniors saying they are struggling to hold health insurance and a reduction in support will push them over the edge and onto public health. Around 70% earn $55K or less.

Another example of a not for profit #MembersHealth fund investing in the local community. #notforprofits don’t have to serve shareholders or overseas investors. That means they can return more back to their policyholders benefits than would otherwise be the case. #mhfa

So important to get C19 boosters and keep vaccinations up to date.

“Covid is killing on average 25 people in Australia every day with more than half the nation not getting any form of booster shot in the past six months.”

Time to allow health insurers the option to help with GP costs through extras cover. Australian Patients Association found that over half of 18-34 year olds avoid doctor visits due to out-of-pocket expenses. Regular check-ups are crucial to good population health. #healthylife

Extras #HealthInsurance can help cover the costs of important services not covered by #Medicare. Keeping up with regular #dental and #optical check-ups, #psychology and #physio care can help protect your current and future #health and save you money.

Recent review undertaken by @TheKingsFund indicates Australia's mixed public and private health system is among the best for avoidable/treatable mortality. Highlights importance of screening, fast access to diagnostics; quick diagnosis; access to timely and effective treatment.

If there’s one thing that’s certain in life, it’s that you never know what it’ll throw at you.

Sad that children are waiting so long for care in the public health system & impact it can have on development & quality of life. So important that those who can, take out private cover, which helps free up public beds for those most in need. #MHFA

It is disconcerting to read that in the public hospital system, an increased number of mothers are sent home one day or less after giving birth to their child, in order to free up much needed beds.

More harm caused to young Australians due to illegal vaping drugs. Time for authorities to enforce the law on illegal vaping products and prosecute those behind this illicit trade.
