As part of government reforms to health insurance, Medibank will categorise covers as 'Gold', 'Silver', 'Bronze' or 'Basic'. This change aims to make it easier to compare covers and choose health insurance that is right for you.

Top Hospital is (unsurprisingly) our highest level of Hospital cover. It includes big ticket items like pregnancy and birth, heart procedures and hip or knee joint replacements – with no exclusions or restrictions.
Cover Summary Gold Advantage | 1. Hospital cover. Hospital cover can pay towards services you receive when you're admitted to hospital and treated as a private patient. It can't pay towards any services when you're not admitted to hospital (eg. seeing your GP or specialist).
Gold policies may also be worth looking into for older Australians or people with chronic illnesses. Notably, the Gold tier is the only one required to cover cataracts, joint replacements and dialysis for chronic kidney failure, which policies from other tiers will not necessarily cover.
Medibank Silver Plus Secure. Comprehensive cover to support your body as it gets older, including joint replacements, heart & vascular, and cataracts. Plus - if you're eligible, you'll have access to tailored health programs and Medibank at Home to help you feel more in control of your health.
In simplest terms, a top-up health cover is an indemnity policy, which offers you additional medical cover to your existing health insurance or a group mediclaim policy. Many people confuse these plans with rider policies such as critical illness, hospital cash, or personal accidental cover.
That's completely up to you. Some people only take out hospital cover because they want more choice if they need surgery. While other people just want extras cover for out-of-hospital treatments like dental, optical and physio. It's all up to you if you would like to get hospital cover, extras cover or even both.
We launched the Medibank Priority program in February 2018 for customers who have been members for 10 years or more. Priority customers have access to benefits such as a dedicated service line, support from health professionals when they go to hospital, and exclusive offers.
There are excess options available. You can choose to reduce the hospital excess and pay an additional amount in your premium. An excess applies per person for each calendar year and doesn't apply to children on your membership. It's important to note that you may have other out-of-pocket expenses.
