Southern Cross Health Insurance Review 2022

Southern Cross health insurance plans reflect the different stages, budgets, and levels of cover that Kiwis need, whether for major surgery, day-to-day healthcare, or peace of mind.

Southern Cross Health Insurance offers five types of health insurance to accommodate various customer needs. Southern Cross offers:

• HealthEssentials is a daily health cover plan to help you manage your health. You can claim up to $1,250 annually from just $1 daily.
• Wellbeing One is a comprehensive surgery plan for peace of mind.
  The plan includes cover for cancer care, surgical treatment and specialist consultations, diagnostic imaging, tests and recovery within six months of related eligible surgical treatment, chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
• Wellbeing Two is slightly different from Wellbeing One because it covers cancer care and surgery, specialists can be consulted, diagnostic images can be taken, and tests can be done anytime.
• UltraCare is a high-end surgical, medical, and day-to-day plan for people who want the most cover. The plan covers cancer care, surgery, specialist visits, diagnostic imaging and tests, and day-to-day care that can be given at any time. Also, you can choose your specialist, and after three years of continuous coverage, your pre-existing health conditions that qualify will be covered (except under Cancer Cover Plus).
