always patient, helpful and professional.

Recently, my company started offering additional health cover to employees, so I needed to move my Extras cover from my current Phoenix policy to the company policy while keeping my Hospital cover with Phoenix. There was a little miscommunication between my company and Phoenix during the process, but Jan C. was extremely helpful. She helped me sort everything out and patiently answered all of my questions.

I always recommend Phoenix Health Fund to my friends and family. Their products are designed to suit customers' needs, their prices are reasonable, and most importantly, their customer service is excellent.

Thank you, Jan C. and the Phoenix team!

Lucy is lovely, very knowledgeable and very helpful. Lucy helped me alter my policy to better suit my circumstances and to save money. Just terrific, thank you. Show details

down , dont look at you , ignore you welcome ??? not suited to customer service in that case. Making the customer chase you around , sullen gen z too lazy and rude to senior staff. Mackay QLD and Orange NSW in particular need improvements, the shining light was Ray in Orange an experienced professional , friendly and welcoming and great service with great knowledge, an asset to the company but the rest of his team let him down. The separation of the "eye " staff to the rest of the team is a disconnnect for the customer its not working.

good until there not.. I've been. With Australian unity since 2009. In that time, I've always had my non PBS GP prescribed Medication covered under… Read more

my pharmacy On my extras. There was a few occasions where they didn't cover my pharmacy once I submitted my receipt. But I spoke to a supervisor and they back paid me for the Times, they did not pay me. They assured me that moving forward my pharmacy would still be covered as my medication is not on the PBS. Well, you can imagine my surprise when they stopped covering my pharmacy again. I was put in touch with someone from a different department and he said to me m y medication Is not covered because it's not FDA approved. I questioned how it's not FDA approved If a GP Is prescribing it. He said to me that my life saving Prescribed medication is nothing more Then supplements. I said to him they're not supplements, they're GP prescribed Through a compounding pharmacy. If they were supplements, I would be able to order them over the counter or online. I asked to speak to a supervisor and explain to him that I was assured my medication would be covered. He said to me there's no one higher than me. I'm the last stop. And we're not covering your medication moving forward.

My medication costs a few dollars every five weeks and whilst some small amount Is a great help I have to budget as cost of living you can imagine is quite expensive. So that additional amount that they're not covering now? Has put a strain on my finances. And I have had to reduce my medication dosage and in result have not been feeling great because I haven't been able to afford the medication.

To the person who denied my medication may you get the same karma back for a family member. Australian Unity. You can kick rocks.

No doubt I will have a generic templated response."" Let's talk about it Please touch base""". I've done all that Australian unity. I've touched base. I was refused to speak to a supervisor because The person that denied my medication apparently is The top tier person higher than the CEO higher than any supervisor in the company, and apparently there was no one else to talk to. So yes, you can kick rocks. Both the company and your templated response.

cancel the insurance and apply for refund- wgich she did on 22 July. Later after a week when called they said it will be actioned by Friday the 7 August. We CALLED again on 12 August saying why no refund - another lady said she will esclate this and get it actioned in 1 day. We called again today and another rude lady said "I am sorry" about what my colleague said but refund team are busy and there is no eta for this. We GOT NO EMAIL FROM REFUND team saying there has been delays. We ASKED FOR SUPERVISOR AND THEY SAID THEY WILL ARRANGE A CALL BACK. They are just wasting her time.

They can send me an email to reject my claim however I have not received any emails asking me to submit my account details. I also have no phone messages so I’m not sure what their unsuccessful attempts to contact me are. Not great peoplecare.

put on 12 months wait. Now my wife and I can claim but not the kids. Looking to cancel now, you know what? Freedom to just do what we like when we like feels pretty fun. No more trying to wring value out of $1000/year. Bye bye!

I was very happy with the service I received. Matt was very patient and answered all my questions regarding health insurance in a lot of detail. The whole process was very easy. Many thanks! Show details

recently I had a hospital admission and submitted my claims soon after. These people give me the runaround constantly. They blame Medicare, Medicare blames them and then they both blame the provider and the only person that suffers me. I’ve spent over two hours on the phone with them in the past week and each time someone has given me a different answer or reason to why my claim is being held up. They make dreadful errors at my expense and when you email them to try to find out what’s going on, they either ignore you or respond with a single line and you are no better informed than you were previously. I will be getting out of this health fund as soon as I possibly can. Please think very carefully before joining them because if you need to make a claim, they will not pay it and they will make mistake after mistake and you will be chasing your tail for months on end until you finally give up because they wear you down. I outlaid $36,900 for a procedure and so far I have received $900 back. I pay top hospital cover. That is an absolute disgrace.

We have been with HCF over 2 months now. I just got a $513 dental bill, HCF only covered $186. I was $327 out of pocket. Pretty bad as we pay a premium of $528 a month. Changed funds !! Show details

to be able to use my card and paying in full , I have had two 30+ minute phone calls about not being able to update my app info and having to use a downloaded claim form that I submitted only to have to call again - as I was asked what I wanted to happen next …. Only to learn that my claim Had not landed despite getting the automated response … hoping a more direct. Email provided will help … going to Physio again ( great by the way) . Tomorrow … what would happen if I did not have funds to pay?? When I have just paid a years “ enrolment “ !! ….

- review of above : great response from consumer help but still unable to get app up and running after another hour on the phone and no capacity to know when sorted but card worked at Physio - But warning: no matter what they say initially if you have to receive a code on your phone finally as can’t use your phone to register you need TWO devices for task completion. However they say they’ll send me $100 gift card but it won’t get back practice I missed and cannot make up! And I’d prefer the latter! This kind of issue is going on at Telstras new security version. . Not the fault of the person I spoke to At Hif who halve to answer the call . They were always trying to help …

This non-profit health insurer offers generous cover, but has some notable drawbacks. Their fixation on Tasmanian wellness centres is irrelevant to… Read more

mainland customers. Seems to be for Tasmanian who are not fund members. Backend systems are slow and unreliable, with occasional outages. The UX is inconsistent and feels unpolished. Expect more call centre contact than you'd get with comparable providers, and tansaction processing times of 3–5 days that feel like a throwback to the era of batch processing. The app is third-party.

Customer Service skills, very nice, helpful and professional. She found a cheaper Policy that fits my age & needs perfectly and save me $ 30 fortnightly. I was happy she provided me with the support I required and avoided me from moving to a different insurance company, she even offered to do a follow up with me in a week. I am delighted to have Kerry on the phone when I made the call, I definitely give Kerry a 5 stars.

became a health issue. Navy health refused my claims even though I had not claimed any of my pharmaceutical benefit previously.

Hm, recently got update email that the dental refund will change in Oct2026 if not using their cluster of dentists which are only 2500 Australia… Read more

wide. I had dodgy dentists before and am now in good hands. I want you NIB to still do the whole refund for a dental work code, no matter which dentist. It's far below the actual cost anyway.

Also the surprise that a covered private hospital was NOT including their lab work, was very unexpected additional cost. (Canberra Calvary Bruce hospital 2025) Lab work is usual during surgery pre and post. You cannot say when I check if NIB includes this hospital "yes", when the lab work is excluded which puts me another 720aud out of pocket ..

At least many hospitals are in the NIB network, and had no other surprises, but please state clearly if lab is not covered, as I would refuse daily lab parameters like full blood count when it is not life threatening necessary and no events.

Otherwise cover and claims were easy to process with NIB.

But am looking at other providers due to the lab out of pocket in covered hospital and dental refund changes.

Cancelling a policy was a NIGHTMARE! I wanted to cancel my parents’ OVHC policy after they left the country, and what should have been a simple… Read more

process turned into an absolute nightmare. The messaging and WhatsApp support agents seemed extremely inexperienced. I had to deal with six different people, and every time I made the changes they requested to the Authority Form, I was told something else was missing or needed to be amended. It became an endless back-and-forth.

Signing up was easy enough, but cancelling the policy has been incredibly difficult. My parents left the country over a month ago, yet I’m still being charged for services they are no longer using.

After this experience, I would strongly recommend staying away from Bupa. I’m now seriously reconsidering our own health insurance and will be cancelling our current Bupa policy as well.

What should have been a straightforward cancellation has been unnecessarily stressful, frustrating, and time-consuming.
