*Private health insurance is complex and it can be difficult to compare health insurance products.  You should discuss your health insurance needs with the fund you are proposing to switch to so that you understand the new product, how it differs from your current product and can confirm that the product is right for you.  Make sure you consider the products excess, co-payment, full cost and all out of pocket expenses that will apply in the event you require treatment at a hospital. You should also consider if you are obtaining a comparable product.  If you switch to a comparable product with another fund that has the same level of benefits and same conditions as your current product, you will not have to re-serve any waiting periods that have already been served.
