AA Health Insurance

From one of NZ's most trusted health insurance brands

AA Health Insurance

AA Health Insurance provides quality, affordable cover for you and your loved ones - from day-to-day medical expenses like GP and physio, through to surgery and specialist consultations, plus non-PHARMAC treatments. With AA Health Insurance, you can sit back and relax knowing you're covered by one of NZ's most trusted health insurance brands.

As a New Zealand resident, it's true that you can get emergency care and treatment for serious conditions through the public health system. Relying on this alone can come with disadvantages though - you may have long wait times for treatment, you may not have access to the health provider of your choosing, and you may not receive compensation from the ACC if your condition isn't related to an accident. Having health insurance means you can get the treatment you need faster.

How much difference could health insurance make?

With no health insurance in place, unexpected treatment costs could leave you in a difficult position financially. Health insurance helps pay toward these costs and gives you control over where and who you're treated by. It's good to know how much typical procedures cost to get a better understanding whether you'd benefit from having cover in place.**
