New Zealanders have been sold the wrong types of Health Insurance or Medical Insurance for too long.

Some companies or sales people have been giving little regard to the potentially serious and expensive problems they can cause their customers. The result of this is that you may have a cover that provides for a percentage of all your costs including Doctors and prescriptions, but provides very low levels of cover for serious medical problems.

We are happy to share advice whether or not you decide to become one of our customers. Our aim is to educate and give advice when asked, and to make sure you the best cover you can for your money. We do not charge for this service. If you decide to become a customer you will get a 14 day money back guaranteed and if you need to make claim we are here to help you if you require it.

Hospital Waiting Lists. How do you get on one?

First of all you need your Doctor to refer you to a specialist. You wait for two to four months before you get your appointment, when the specialist checks you or your child carefully. At this stage he/she will make a decision on just how urgent your surgery is, taking into account pain and suffering.

Now I hate pain and suffering, but I am a male. We are not good at it, I'm told, but even with that in the surgeon's mind I do not get enough points to even make the waiting list. What now? I ask. Well if your condition changes for the worse get your doctor to refer you back for another assessment in a few months.

Even if I made it to the waiting list I would have to take my turn after people worse off than me. This system was designed to reduce surgical waiting lists and it has. Please feel free to e-mail me your personal story and I will publish (not using your real name) on our web site.
