Hi ChatJVT what is the cheapest health insurance cover to get if I want to avoid MLS?
None
Yes, better to use this independent site rather than Finder etc.
Download the latest Private Health Insurance dataset from the government website, load the open hospital policy xml file into Excel, filter on MLS, non-corporate and your state (& ALL states), then sort by premium. Pick the cheapest!
Great to know that the data is published but it's much simpler to just go to https://www.privatehealth.gov.au/, as mentioned above.
Just earn below the threshold.
I also note that no-one has previously asked the OP's question, ever. Such a good question 🙄
Cycle through X free weeks free deals.
