Medicash

Anyone from 16 to 65 years old. No medical is needed and your premiums won’t increase because of your age.

Our plans are designed to cover individuals, couples or families. Any dependent children up to the age of 16, or 19 if in full-time education, are covered for some benefits at no extra cost on all plans.

Our Solo Plan covers you plus any dependent children. If you wish to cover your partner, including same sex partnerships, you will need to select our Dual Plan. Both plans are available in a range of levels.

You can claim immediately from the day that your policy starts for most benefits, however, Birth of a Child and Pre-existing Conditions for Inpatient and Hospital Daycase are excluded from cover during the 12 months from the start of your plan or increase in premium level.
