Health Insurance (Amendment) Bill 2014
Public bill · Government · Presented
Would have introduced sliding-scale health insurance premiums for young adults up to age 25, without requiring them to be students or dependants. It would also have protected people switching insurers from new waiting periods, updated payments to insurers for older or higher-risk customers and hospital stays from March 2015, and revised the stamp duty funding those payments.
