Matthew Koce, CEO of the umbrella body for not-for-profit mutual health funds, said not for profits don’t have to generate returns for shareholders or overseas investors, so are able to keep premiums lower than would otherwise be the case.

“When shopping around, always talk directly with a health insurance fund,” Mr Koce said.

“Commercial online comparator websites can be helpful but if you read the fine print, you will see they don’t compare all insurers and may not even display every policy on offer by those insurers they do feature.”

The contact details for all the not for profit and member owned health insurers can be found on the Members Health website at https://membershealth.com.au/our-funds/
