Health Insurance
Do I need health insurance?
As a resident of New Zealand, you have access to a very good public health system at a highly subsidised cost. Most GP visits for mild health issues won't put a strain on your budget and you also have ready access to emergency care and treatment when needed.
However relying on the public system for serious conditions and things that are considered non-urgent or elective procedures can have significant disadvantages. Long wait times and limited access to life saving medicines being two of the most common & impactful.
Private Health/Medical Cover gives you timely access to the very best medical attention for non-urgent conditions. Along with control over choosing your preferred medical provider and access to life saving Non-Pharmac medicines. It really makes the world of difference when you or your love ones are in need.
