Title: Re: [ozmidwifery] On behalf of Rochelle . Perth

Dear Rochelle


Kelly’s info is up to date.

Forget Medibank Private, they are hopeless as you no doubt know.

As an existing fund member waiting periods do not apply if you switch funds.  But naturally confirm this. Grand United is the fund we are recommending.

You should write to Medibank Priv and complain re the total lack of competition  re provider.  Please also take the time to complain to the Private Health Insurance Ombudsman.  (Don’t accept the lack of insurance as a reason against midwifery coverage, the Ombudsman should be putting a case to Gov for support to make PHI affordable and accessible to all.

His details are Mr John Powlay and this is from their site www.phio.org.au

You can raise a complaint with us by phone, email, fax or letter.
