Extra support in and out of the classroom

As the health fund for school staff and their families, supporting your health and wellbeing is what we’re here for.

Of course you get everything you’d expect from private health insurance – like being able to skip long public hospital waits, choose your doctor and get money back for things like dental, optical and physio, just to name a few.

But what makes us different is a little more understanding of what matters most to you.

Just some of the ways we go the extra mile for our members

As a not-for-profit fund, we give you better value by returning more premiums back to members (instead of payouts to shareholders)^

Our care goes beyond Hospital and Extras to support eligible members with things like mental wellness, having a baby, health conditions and potentially even gym memberships

We let adult kids stay on your cover longer by including eligible dependants on your family cover till they turn 32

We give back to members whenever we can, through initiatives like disaster relief, COVID giveback, lower premium increasesᶧ and premium freezes

We support the education community through scholarships, sponsorships, research and more

We’re Australia’s largest industry health fund, created by teachers over 65 years ago and now looking after over 370,000 people.
