New hospital agreement - Healthscope
Peoplecare are a not-for-profit health fund, and we exist solely for our members. We have agreements in place with over 535 hospitals across Australia and continually work to ensure we maintain affordability and access to quality healthcare for our members.
Peoplecare has successfully reached an in-principal agreement with Healthscope following lengthy negotiations over the past few months. Healthscope operates 38 private hospitals across Australia, and provide a range of medical, surgical, psychiatric and rehabilitation services.
We had previously notified members that Healthscope had taken the decision to terminate our agreement, with the effective date of midnight 3rd March 2025.
We are pleased that we were able to reach a new agreement as it means our members remain covered at a Healthscope hospital under the terms of their policy with certainty of no additional out-of-pocket expenses for our members.
What does this mean for Peoplecare members?
Peoplecare members remain covered under the terms of their policy with no additional out-of-pocket expenses for treatments at a Healthscope hospital.
