Private health insurance industry must pass on savings
13 October 2017 - Today the Medical Technology Association of Australia calls on the Private Health Insurance to deliver to their 13.5 million customers no more than a CPI increase next year given the scale of the savings they are receiving from reductions to the Prostheses List.
It’s critically important every cent of savings is directly passed through to their customers.
