Choosing the Right Level of Cover for Kimberley Households

Selecting the right combined Health Cover depends on family size, ages, and typical healthcare use. Young families often prioritise stronger day-to-day benefits for routine GP visits and child care, while older adults may choose higher hospital limits. Use the steps below to compare options and decide what fits your monthly budget.

Step-by-step selection guide

1. List routine needs: estimate annual GP visits, dental and eye care requirements for each household member.
2. Assess risk factors: consider occupational risks, planned procedures, or chronic conditions that may increase the need for in-hospital care.
3. Compare benefit emphasis: prioritise day-to-day benefit levels if you visit GPs frequently, or prioritise hospital limits for surgical risk.
4. Review waiting periods and in-hospital definitions so there are no surprises at claim time.

Practical Kimberley scenarios where combined cover helps

• Parents who need regular GP visits and immunisations for children benefit from stronger day-to-day allocations.
