need help to find the best couples health cover for your needs?

Answers to commonly asked questions to help you make the right choice.

On top of choosing your doctor and hospital, and lowering out-of-pocket costs on extras like dental, couples health cover has additional benefits. It’s easier to manage under one policy and you’ll receive one health insurance tax statement instead of two, simplifying your tax return as a couple for your private health insurance rebate if you’re eligible.

Learn how the government rebate works

You don’t need to be married to get couples health insurance. We'll cover you and your partner if you’re married, or in a de facto relationship. There’s also no minimum time requirement for how long you’ve been together.

So, whether you’re a young couple planning a family, a couple with no children, empty nesters, or mature couple, we have couples health insurance to suit you and your situation and health needs.

Learn more about health cover and what's right for you

On top of a private health insurance rebate and avoiding the Lifetime Health Cover (LHC) loading if you have hospital cover before turning 31, couples health cover could also help you avoid paying the Medicare Levy Surcharge. 

This additional tax can be between 1% and 1.5% of your individual income if it’s above the specified threshold of $101,000. Couples health cover increases this threshold to $202,000, meaning both you and your partner won’t need to pay the extra Medicare Levy if your combined income is below this threshold, and will get more back in your tax return.
