GMHBA was founded in 1934 in Geelong by a group of workers from the Australian Cement Company who were concerned about how their families would afford to pay for healthcare. GMHBA now provides health insurance to more than 230,000 Australians, according to their 2015 annual report.
GMHBA won the coveted CANSTAR Award for Outstanding Value Health Insurance (Tasmania) in 2015, and won the Award for Outstanding Value Extras Cover (Victoria) in 2013.
GMHBA is one of the 15 not-for-profit Members Own Health Funds in Australia, meaning profits are returned to members in the form of cheaper premiums. Both members and the general public can attend health seminars run by GMHBA to increase their wellbeing.
The fund also supports the community by distributed more than $500,000 in community grants every year. GMHBA also sponsors a range of health promotion events such as the Pier to Pub and Mountain Surf, the Great Ocean Road Race, and more.
GMHBA also works to protect the environment. Their Head Office switched to 80% Green Power in 2015-16.
