There are good reasons to switch to Bupa Health Insurance. And it’s easy to make the move.
You want to continue to be sure you're covered for when things pop up in life, which is why Bupa offers a range of health insurance options to suit different life stages and budgets.
Making a move from another private health fund?
It’s simple to switch to Bupa from your existing health fund. We'll help you pick the right health insurance cover that is suitable for your needs and provide you with a quote.
If you switch from another registered Australian private health fund, you will enjoy continuity of membership for the same level of benefit entitlements for services common to both levels of private health cover - as long as you have already served the relevant waiting periods and moved within two months of ceasing membership of the previous private health fund.
If you are switching to a level of Bupa cover that provides benefits not covered by your previous health fund, you will need to serve the relevant waiting periods for the additional benefits.
Where Limits apply, including Lifetime Limits, any benefits paid by your previous private health fund are treated as if Bupa had paid them.
We'll do the paperwork with your old health fund to save you time.
You simply need to complete our application form. Alternatively, just call us on 134 135 and we can send this and any other relevant paperwork for you to sign and return, postage free. Don't forget you will also need to cancel any direct debit arrangement you may have with your previous health fund.
30-day cooling off period on our health cover
We're confident you'll be satisfied with Bupa. So confident that provided you have not made a claim we will refund your phi premiums if you tell us you are not satisfied within the first 30 days of joining.
