Private Healthcare HIF Vs HCF (Hospital Cover)

Hi,

Can anyone advise if Goldstarter Hospital (HIF) or Basic Hospital (HCF) is better?

Thank you.

  • Define better.

    Seriously though ensure the cover actually covers stuff you need, top cover includes everything.

  • Hi FitForLife,

    I’m HIF’s Digital Manager and I’m delighted to see that you’re considering joining us. :)

    I’ve just reviewed the HCF cover you mentioned above and I can confirm that our GoldStarter Hospital cover is better value for you on this occasion, as our policy covers a number of services not covered by HCF’s Basic Hospital including dialysis, spinal surgery and sterilisation.

    Our standard $200 excess on GoldStarter is also lower than the options available with HCF ($250 or $500), and our policy appears to be cheaper too. For example, for a single in WA claiming the full health insurance rebate, HIF GoldStarter Hospital is $1.05 cheaper per week than HCF Basic Hospital.

    If you do choose to join HIF, you can also use the promo code “HIFOZ50” to get a bonus $50 eftpos card. Full details on that offer can be found here: www.hif.com.au/hifoz50

    I hope that helps anyway, but if you have further questions please don’t hesitate to ask. You can email me any time on [email protected]

    Warm regards,

    Nikki Dale.
