Hi Ozbargainers,
Do I apply for PHI or pay for Medicare Levy Surcharge?
I have a European background so I am not used to private medical. I earn way over the levy threshold, I think last Levy was around 2K, I am 38YO and potentially having a child next year.
Corporate PHI discount is 12% off and 6 weeks free when joining. Looks like the cheapest weekly couple rate is ~$9 while including pregnancy benefits is $90 (but I haven't reached properly so maybe this this the top tier).
Do I still pay residual Levy if I go PHI?
I remit to wisdom of the crowd.
Thank you!
It's been at least 3 days since this was asked so I'll let this one slide.
