Switching from another fund? Let us do the paperwork for you.
If you're currently insured by another Australian health fund, we’ll help take the stress out of switching. We'll automatically recognise your previous length of hospital coverage with your current fund, and if you're transferring to an equivalent or lower level of cover, you won't have to re-serve waiting periods either. If you're transferring to a higher level of cover, you will need to serve waiting periods for those services not included in your previous level of cover
To authorise us to arrange the transfer on your behalf, simply check the box during the online application process, and enter the name of your previous health fund and your membership number. Alternatively, if you're joining over the phone, you can instruct your Sales Consultant to complete the authorisation details for you.
Once we have your authorisation, we'll then contact your previous fund and request that they send us what's known as a 'Clearance Certificate'. The certificate provides HIF with all the details we need in order to finalise your new policy with us, including your length of membership with your old fund, any waiting periods that may still be outstanding, plus any Lifetime Health Cover loading that may apply.
Rewards for referrals.
Our members mean everything to us (after all the more members we have, the better value we can offer everyone). That’s why we like to encourage our existing members to spread the word about our health insurance by rewarding every successful referral.
A lot of our new memberships result from word of mouth referrals – happy members tell their friends about HIF and in turn, they become new happy members. And because we value member referrals (outside the BGC corporate plan), we'll send you a $70 eftpos card every time you successfully refer a friend (and there's no limit to how many you can earn!) Check out the Member Rewards page to find out more.
