Health insurance premiums set to rise
16 January 2017 - Australian families could soon be forking out an extra $200 for private health cover as insurers lobby the federal government for their annual premium hike.
It's that time of year again when private health insurers apply to the health minister, justifying their reasons for higher premiums.
And when the increases kick in from April 1, the average family is expected to be footing an annual health insurance bill of around $4100, according to insurance comparison website iSelect.
