I have been a QCH member for twenty-five years because I am so v. happy with the easy to understand policy documents, the depth of cover offered - and because there is never a long wait to talk with one of the always courteous and warm consultants on the phone. I highly recommend Queensland Country Fund. Show details ·  1

Have been a member for around 30 years. Competitive premiums. Service has always been prompt, friendly and efficient. Never had an issue with claims. Regularly approached to compare the market with other funds - none come close to the overall cover we have. Our 3 adult children are also happy members. Very happy with our membership. Show details ·  1

Easy to access support by a real person and I face always going the service to be great. I have been with QCHF for over 25 years and occasionally explore other health funds but QCHF comes up as the winner every time. Show details ·  1

It’s always so quick to get through to an actual person and they’re always very helpful, friendly and professional. Communication is great when lodging claims and turnaround is very quick. Can’t speak to value for money as I’ve been with them for years and haven’t shopped around but whenever I claim on the at healthcare providers, they always comment that it’s a good rebate. Show details ·  1

Dental Premier Providers shortfall – Fairly good cover provided for Top Hospital policy. I have been with this Health Insurance provider for many years, and at my age (71) it is prudent to have good cover for the unexpected. However, Queensland Country Health seem to be lacking in the Dental area, and this has been so for many years now. This company has a list of 'Dental Premier… Read more

Providers'. This is a list of Dental practitioners throughout Qld who are approved by QCH, and offer the appropriate discounted rates. This is fine if one lives in an area close to one of these approved dentists. I live in Buderim, Sunshine Coast, Qld and the nearest Dental Premier Provider to me is at Landsborough, some 30 minutes travel away, on a good day with little traffic. BUPA, by comparison, have at least 5 preferred dentist in my immediate area. In short, I think its about time that QCH upgraded this service. I shall be contacting them separately about this issue.

Extras – So disappointed. Been in healthcare for over 20 years. They closed my extras, if I want to claim I have to upgrade to the new highest extras, pay more and wait 12 months!!! What a joke. It’s expensive enough as it is! Show details

Not Transparent! – When transferring to QCH from BUPA we asked questions such as if we were covered the same as our previous insurance and was assured we were. Now we discover we need to be members for three years to be covered for robotic surgery. I feel QCH has been deceitful at the very least. Currently in the process of lodging a complaint with the Health Ombudsman. Show details

More help should given to people who have to visit specialists no reimbursement unless you are admitted to hospital. I would imagine a large number of your clients are pensioners etc, and have been with you for many years. Show details

I would normally leave the claiming for services provided to my wife. This time I took it upon myself. The staff were very patient and I was able to complete the claim on my second attempt. This was only possible because they took the time to clearly show me the requirements needed. Show details ·  1

Where does Qld Country Health find their staff? They actually seem to love their job so much and are happy all the time. The phone calls are answered very quickly and the staff that answer your call find the information you are wanting and you do not get palmed off between other people so it means every staff member is trained very well. Whatever the staff are on I want some !! Show details ·  1

Been with QHF for over 15 years. Coverage has been great, making claims has been easy. Unfortunately premiums always go up and it is not cheap having quality health insurance, but QHF does offer a personable and well supported experience. Would recommend to friends. Show details ·  1

I wish I could remember the name of the lady that helped me the day I spoke to QCH. She realised that I was in pain (broken shoulder) and that I was feeling very low. She showed me empathy, kindness and patience. She LISTENED and did not rush me. My complaint was noted and a solution suggested. She made a difference!! Show details ·  1

Always so easy to deal with, good value for money. Not even those "compare" companies can match my level of cover for the price. They can beat the price I pay (just) but they can't include some of the items that I need for the price they quote Show details ·  3

Wonderful helpful staff. In years gone by I've been with other health insurance services and QCHF definitely have exceeded their service and most general rebates. I've been with QChF for over a decade now am more than happy to recommend this health fund. Great value for money and fabulous safety net BP Show details ·  1

They have been very helpful in providing exactly what I need and in telephone conversations before hospitalisation, I was reassured by staff who were patient, kind. There is no doubt the policy is extremely good value and I was well taken care of. Show details ·  1
