Not for profit, not for benefits either! ALL private health cover should include ambulance cover, what an absolute rort!
I've had private health for more than 30 years and have rarely claimed but the one time I need them we're not covered. An ambulance visit is something ALL private health cover services should automatically include in even the cheapest policies. I'm certain GMHBA will respond to this to protect those members that are most important to them .... THEMSELVES!

Must have health insurance
We have used our hospital cover a number of times over a few years now. We have had no problems with the claims process. The premiums keep increasing but I hope it is necessary for the fund to function properly.

GMHBA better than most
We moved to GMHBA last year after some very low rebates from an other heath insurer. We found the range of products more to our liking the staff at GMHBA where very helpful in tailoring the policy for us and so far they have been terrific to deal with.

Switched - then switched straight back!!!
These guys have taken care of me for several years now. Iselect told me they found me a better deal but they hadn't and GMHBA took me back and reinstated my health insurance. Never had any problems with claims or inquiries, and the returns are great

Not happy
I have found that it is impossible to speak with a representative to discuss issues relating to claims. This is extremely frustrating and will almost certainly cause me to seek insurance from another provider.

Wonderful Health Insurance Company
My wife and I have been with GMHBA for the past 18 years...GMHBA has continually met all of our expectations and more.. they have been supportive when I was in need of professional help outside the hospital system and continue to provide this financial support..They are up front and open about their products..we can not talk highly of GMHBA and there on going assistance in meeting our health needs...and on top of that they are very reasonable in there monthly fees..we are with them for life.

The right benefits, the right value, the right service. Doesn't get much better than that
Moved to GMHBA in frustration with another mainstream provider and couldn't be happier. We've been with them for a few years now and major times for support. Heart issues dental issues and GMHBA always there and top flight.

This is perfect, just right for us.
I have been with this insurance company since 1960. It has always provided excellent support firstly when I was still single then as a married person and with three children both in Australia and overseas.

Extras claims.
It would be better if I could pick some extras and drop some apart from pregnancy. I use chiropractor and not physios. Some claim limits could be larger than others.

Horrendous GMHBA backflip after 35 years membership.
Member of GMHBA for 35 years and after my wife's back surgery and being told from a GMHBA staff person that we were to receive 8 home Physo visits- only to be told 4 weeks later that this HAS now been scrapped by GMHBA. No reason given and upper management just scrambled and were no help what so ever!!! Never been so disappointed in a company before, perhaps if they paid a visit to see the pain and struggle my wife has had to face in the last 9 months they may have changed their minds on this horrendous decision. Members before profit- I DONT THINK SO !!!!!!

'Not for Profit', Excellent Service and Partners with Convenient Medical Services
We have been members of GMHBA since we changed from another provider back around 1996. We felt the other company let us down badly and a friend recommended this Geelong based company as an alternative. It was a huge eye-opener back then as GMHBA's personal service was so different from the big company and at the end of each year, we got a cash bonus for our good health (non-use of certain categories, rewards for being healthy). We lived overseas for a while, so suspended GMHBA till we returned and they helped us through the entire renewal pro...
Read morecess with no hassles and a lot of personal phone service. Nice manner from the service chap and it is always like that. Their training must be very diligent. Our only regret is that they don't allow us at our advanced age to opt out of anything to do with childbirth, quitting smoking and other services we don't use. We are very healthy and would love some discounts on decent sneakers, a swimming club for instance, instead of inappropriate options. I like the fact that they don't waste money on branches as everything can be done digitally. Claims are easy, fast and if I have any queries, they are answered very fast with little hanging on a phone line and certainly never any handing off of the call to other workers. Plus the call centres have always been local and let's hope it stays that way as I cannot stand dealing with overseas call centres. While I understand that insurance is a shared liability across many age groups, it would be nice if they introduced an option for mostly healthy oldies, and if they do, I'll give them 5 stars!- Value for Money

Good policy but needs improvement
I think the insurance we pay is expensive for what the rewards are that we receive back. We are in the highest possible cover and still feel that for some of the ancillaries the amount received back is certainly not sufficient. The cover needs to improve.

Questions & Answers
What am I covered for
Does GMHBA cover some/all the cost of blood pressure monitors
Which A C T pathology groups do GMHBA have agreements with . I would like to join but have read reviews which Suggest ACT residents may be disadvantaged .thank you Wilma
Capital Pathology has the bulk of the business in the ACT. Only a problem if you are hospitalised and lot of blood tests were done, as in my case. I am not sure if GMHBA has no fee agreements with others in the ACT.
Thanks for your response . Perhaps GMHBA could clarify this .
