FAQs

​

What is an excess?

​

Just like with your car or home insurance, an excess is a contribution you’re required to pay towards a Hospital claim you make on your policy. It’s paid directly to the hospital when you’re admitted for treatment. The higher the excess, the lower the monthly premium.

​

How long do I have to make changes to my policy?

​

You have 90 days from your policy start date to make changes without the need for underwriting. Your acceptance certificate mentions your policy start date. 

​

How does this nib policy compare to other policies in the market?

​​

nib's Premier Health Policy is a very well-rated policy in the current market - our independent research provider has allocated it a core score of 94/100. However, the key point is that pre-existing conditions are covered under this policy, which is extremely rare in the market. This policy matrix illustrates how nib's policy is rated against the current insurance market.

​

Why health insurance?

​

The public health system in New Zealand offers free or low cost treatment at public hospitals for Kiwis, but high demand and the rising cost of providing healthcare creates challenges.

  • If you need non-urgent treatment, you might be put on a waiting list which can lead to stress and uncertainty. How long you wait may depend on the severity of your condition.

  • If your condition is not accident-related, treatment costs won’t be covered by ACC (the Accident Compensation Corporation).

  • You may have less control over when and where you are treated.

 

That’s where private health insurance comes in.

  • You have the choice of private treatment and surgery without relying on the public health system.

  • You can choose who you see and when you are treated.

  • Faster treatment means you can get back on your feet quicker, whether that be for work or play.

  • You have peace of mind as your health insurer will cover approved costs for expensive private treatments and surgeries.

​

How do I lodge a claim with nib?

​

With medical insurance, it's best practice to seek pre-approval for upcoming consultations/procedures. This ensures you're covered ahead of time. With nib, there are two ways of lodging a claim - the first is via the website or app, and everything you need to know can be found here. If you prefer filling in a form, then the second method is via nib's claim form. Once completed, send this form to claims@aynsley.co.nz and we will lodge with this nib.
