About
HCF is Australia’s largest not-for-profit health fund. They have a proud history of putting people before profit and showing Uncommon Care for their members for over 90 years.
Unlike for-profit health insurers, HCF don’t pay shareholders. Instead, members’ premiums go towards covering the cost of their healthcare, as well as pioneering new ways to deliver the best health and wellbeing outcomes now and in the future.
For every dollar spent on premiums, HCF paid out an average of 90c back to their members, which is more than the industry average over the past 10 years*.
Through health events big or small, you can count on HCF. They’ve been awarded Outstanding Value Health Insurance by Canstar for 7 years running (2016 – 2022) and recognised for customer service excellence by the Customer Service Institute of Australia, winning the 2022 Best of the Best and Customer Service Organisation of the Year (large business) awards.
Putting their money where their members are. That’s pretty uncommon.
* 90% compared to 86% across the industry. Calculated based on the average of the past 10 years, sourced from APRA Statistics: Private Health Insurance Operations Reports 2013-22.
