MORE FOR OUR MEMBERS

No waiting periods for the same benefits

  • your HCF cover includes the same level of benefits and services as your previous cover
  • you’ve served the equivalent waiting periods with your previous fund****.

**** To avoid serving waiting periods again when switching between funds, you’ll need to have switched from another Australian registered health insurer or an international health insurer belonging to the International Federation of Health Plans, and to have joined within 1 month of ending your previous membership. These rules also apply if you’ve switched from another HCF product. When you switch funds, you can’t transfer any loyalty rewards, including increased limits. If you joined HCF during a special offer, some waiting periods might be waived. This excludes hearing aids as there is a 12-month waiting period from the date you join us. Get in touch with us to check which waiting periods may apply.
