Australian private health insurers must lodge submissions on the Federal Government’s review of the sector by 4 December 2015. Health insurers have proposed the introduction of a lifetime discount for people under the age of 30, in order to encourage a greater take-up rate among young people. Insurers are also concerned that the annual cost of medical devices and prostheses is significantly higher than it should be.
