Medibank is stepping up its support of Australia’s COVID-19 vaccine roll out by rewarding customers for getting the jab.

Eligible customers who are fully vaccinated will receive 1,000 Live Better Rewards points from early next month, by logging the activity in the Live Better Rewards app.

Live Better points can be used by eligible Medibank customers towards gift cards or products from partners including Adidas, Amcal, Apple, Brooks, Fitbit and Onsport. Customers can also choose rewards including saving on their health cover or getting more on their extras like a remedial massage. Customers who are fully vaccinated will be rewarded with Live Better points to the equivalent value of a $10 Amcal gift card.

Mod 2/9: This deal is supposed to start 'early this month' without a date specified, this wasn't reported on posting (we usually remove deals without a dedicated start date). We have set an arbitrary start date of 6/9 13/9 for now, please report the deal if you see it become available.

Mod 14/9: Deal is now available, main link is updated.

      Huh? TGA rules are already clear right?

      You cannot advertise a prescription-only jab (whether it's paid; free; whatever - flu shot; tetanus shot - whatever) per TGA rules. Eg free flu jab @ XYZ pharmacy/medical center. Offering people who have undergone a medical procedure however (whether it is liposuction or getting vaccinated) is not against any TGA terms.

      The grey area? Offering free alcohol for people who have undergone a medical procedure - it's the free and beer part that was the gotcha in Victoria for example. Another one - offering free tobacco (its just against the law) - eg those buy a pack of smokes; get a free cover to hide the warnings fell foul of that.

    Here comes the “I’m anti vax but I’m going to disguise that as being a freedom of choice thing” crowd.

    Hint: none of these programs (including that wacky guy last time offering his newsletter subscription to vaccinated people) are forcing you to get vaccinated. If you don’t want it, don’t take it. If you feel so inclined to “boycott” or want to “ban” people for offering incentives for vaccination, maybe you should re-examine your own position.

        Actually I’m not aware of any mandatory requirements for vaccination as of now. Not even in the hospital systems where I work. Ie NSW health workers are not even forced to vaccinate. It’s strongly encouraged, sure.

        Can you clarify what you mean by “can’t get medical assistance, can’t work, etc”? Is someone stopping you from doing those things just because you’re not vaccinated?

      If $10 worth of health fund points makes you go from anti vax to pro Vax….were you even anti vax in the first place :)

      These incentives are just relatively worthless 'thanks' from companies so they can get some social media points. Doesn't hurt anyone except those massively offended by the ideas of getting the vaccine, and it isn't going to incentivise anyone to actually get the vaccine that wasn't anyway.

      • MorriJ on 19/08/2021 - 19:55
        +11

        This isn't social media points for them. They have a vested financial interest in having their patients vaccinated. If the vaccines reduce complications; hospital stays etc; there is every reason financially for them to throw rewards at you to vaccinate.

        Society wears the hospitalization costs of anyone who enters as a public patient and doesn't provide their private coverage details; but many (like myself) will whack stays on my insurer; the hospitals are underfunded as it is - I'll add my insurers details when asked if I have one in a public hospital.

        Financially it makes sense for them to incentive their patients to get vaccinated; as demonstrated in the US and the cost modelling of insurance companies over there (more heavily weighted in the US as they all basically need private health cover or pocket the bills themselves).

        • CacheHunter on 19/08/2021 - 22:06

          I'm wondering if having people vaccinated really does make financial sense for them. We saw during last year's lockdown that private health insurance claims shrank rapidly, partly because elective surgery was cut back or cancelled. In that case, they might be better off if the lockdowns go longer.
          Ultimately, it doesn't really matter if they think that $10 will change anyone's mind or if its a manipulative marketing ploy. If they're handing out $10 to people that are customers with them anyway, I'll be making sure that I get my share, regardless of their motivation.

      Not ‘needed’ but a good gesture. I think these incentives are prosocial and help to foster a positive culture and dialogue around vaccination. By offering an incentive the business is publicly showing it supports vaccination. The more brands do this, the more it becomes the dominant voice and may help to build confidence in vaccines in the community.

      Of course vaccine availability would also be super helpful.

    • zuruhara on 20/08/2021 - 08:48
