Do we actually have a private health insurance fund JUST for Nurse's?

Or am I just not seeing anything around, in front of me, offering it? :idea:

There is insurance for Doctor's. Teacher's. Police. Railway worker's. Timber Feller's even Druids!

Anybody know?

Thanks.

Depends on your state. In WA there is the Police and Nurses Credit Society which provides insurance to members. I don't know of a similar thing in Vic though.

I don't know why it matters - I just want the best coverage and price for my own age and health history. http://www.iselect.com.au has several plans you can compare online.

I have had insurance for 8 years with NIB. And are happy with my coverage but the cost is getting a bit much.

I just thought that maybe if there was a Nurse's only insurance, then it maybe cheaper.

Just looking at other options that are value for money for what I need.

I have been on iselect. And on the Government site that lists all insurance providers.

Oh well. looks like i'll stay with NIB for now. :cry:

Oh, well in that case - there may be professional nursing organizations which offer discounts for insurance with third party providers. I would check with them, eg. ANF - according to their website, "ANF members have access to Union Health in the city for medical, optical and dental care at discount prices. Phone: 03 9662 3322."
