CBHS Corporate is committed to providing you with great value health insurance and we are proud to deliver benefits when they are needed most. We have again kept affordability top of mind when considering premium increases while acknowledging that claims costs have increased in 2018.

Thank you for your continued support of CBHS Corporate and trusting us with your health insurance needs. We will write to you in late February with the specific details of your individual premium increase once the Federal Government advises the level of Australian Government Rebate on private health insurance that will apply from 1 April 2019.As always, we are happy to answer your questions.
