The Health Insurance Cover Ratings are updated monthly, based on the information held in our database at the time of rating. While we aim to maintain monthly updates, there may be occasional delays. The data on Canstar's database is sourced from the Private Health Insurance Ombudsman (PHIO) database and information provided by providers. Providers are given the opportunity to review and verify this data periodically and upon request. Ratings are reviewed and recalculated monthly to ensure accuracy by aligning with the PHIO data release schedule, although some insurer-level data is updated less frequently by PHIO and may not change month-to-month.

Cover Ratings reflect the data available as at the date listed in the Cover Rating pop-up on the table. While Cover Ratings are reviewed and recalculated monthly, PHIO may update some of its data annually.

The results don’t include every provider in the market and we may not compare all features relevant to you.

You can find a description of the initial sort order below the table. You can use the sort buttons at the top of each column to re-order the display. Learn more about our Health Insurance Cover Rating Methodology. The rating shown is only one factor to take into account when considering products.

The Cover Rating does not match your exact inputs. Sometimes the methodology uses profiles with categories or bands, but sometimes a single methodology, without any categories or bands, is applied. The results will show the products that most closely match your selection, based on our profiles. If you are unsure about any terms used in the comparison table please refer to the glossary.
