Award-winning Extras cover

Why get Extras cover?

Extras can help with the cost of everyday healthcare – things Medicare generally doesn’t pay for, like dental checks, glasses, physio, or chiro.

Our Extras health cover can also work in tandem with Hospital cover, such as seeing a dietitian during cancer treatment. Or during recovery, like speech therapy after a stroke.

What’s right for you?

Consider which services you’re likely to need, now and in the near future, and how often you might need them. You can also compare your Extras cover with ours to see what’s included. Regardless of what life stage you’re in, Teachers Health provides tailored health cover options, including Singles, Couples and Family cover. 

When considering Extras… it’s also good to know Teachers Health was recognised for value for money and outstanding customer satisfaction for Extras cover in the Mozo People's Choice Awards 2023.

*What does Basic Plus mean? 'Basic' tells you which hospital insurance tier the cover sits in. The tiers were introduced by the government to make it easier to compare cover. If we’ve added a ‘Plus’, the cover includes more than the minimum services that have to be in that tier.
