We're all about you

As a member-owned fund, we work for you – not corporate shareholders or overseas owners. We’ll always put your needs ahead of profits so we can better look after you and your health.

We’re personal

Our team of health cover experts will help find the right cover to suit your needs and guide you through the process.

We’re to the point

We know health insurance can be confusing, so we keep it simple and tell it like it is. You’ll always know what you are and aren’t covered for with us. We’ll compare covers with other funds and if ours isn’t the best one for you, we’ll tell you.

We’re value for money

We know you’d rather be spending your money on something else, so we work hard to make sure you’re getting value for your money. We’re always looking for ways to give more of your premium back to you in benefits or services.

We’re easy

We make claiming easy. You’re paying for cover, so you should be able to use it. We’ve got a mobile app, online services and on-the-spot claiming at providers.

We’re loveable

A staggering 97% of our members are satisfied1.

Some of our members even email us out of the blue to say nice things to us, like this one:

“Thank you very much for your high-quality service and support! Like many people I was initially reluctant to pay the cost of private health insurance; however, in our dealings with Peoplecare it has made some of the hardest and most stressful times of life a little easier.”
