Challenges for Private Health Insurance – Presenter Dr David Rankin, Clinical Informatics Director – Cabrini Health .

Private health insurance in Australia is facing a major challenge as the population has rapidly lost confidence in the products offered.  A key driver has been the rising concern over out-of-pocket costs.

There are a range of current incentives that enable over 20 health insurers to operate in Australia.  Some of these incentives will be explored.

The current reform agenda will be explored with an explanation of the implications for health insurers, hospitals and specialists. Options for the future, particularly in developing products across insurers, hospitals and specialists that restore the population confidence in the products and the sustainability of the industry.

A number of emerging industry trends will be highlighted.
