Home About Us What's New Ambulance costs covered

Ambulance Costs Covered for Members

Research shows that almost 1 in 10 Australians experiencing heart attack symptoms would delay calling an ambulance due to the cost involved.

In medical emergencies such as heart attack, delays in seeking treatment can be fatal and urgent response is an absolute must.

While the cost of an ambulance (about $700 for an emergency case in SA) can overwhelm the average person or family, Health Partners members can take comfort in knowing that they’re fully protected with complete ambulance cover.

Health Partners members receive:

  • Full ambulance cover – all emergency and non-emergency services
  • Treatment at the scene without transport
  • Road and air ambulance services
  • Australia-wide coverage
  • $20,000 limit.

Ambulance services are covered on all Extras and Hospital covers except Bronze Hospital. For more information browse our Hospital and Extras cover, or call us on 1300 113 113.

Emergencies and near-emergencies can happen at any time and any place, irrespective of age, health and fitness. Don’t risk the tragedy of losing a life. In emergencies dial 000.

Heart Week is 2 May – 8 May. Find out more at www.heartfoundation.org.au

Release date: 6 May 2010.
