Give the gift of health insurance this Christmas

Now that it’s officially November, the upcoming festive season will be on everyone’s minds. There are events to plan, family and friends to catch up with, and presents to buy. But this year, instead of spending tonnes of money on gifts that your children may or may not like (and let’s be honest, most of them last all of five minutes before the novelty wears off), give the gift of health insurance. The best part? It won’t cost you a thing.

That’s because insurance provider nib has a fantastic offer for new members. For a limited time, for every adult covered by a new Ultimate Health, Ultimate Health Max or Easy Health policy before 29 February 2024, one child will be covered FREE for a year with their Base Cover.

As we all know, insurance is one of those things that you often don’t think about until you need it most. By getting health insurance for your children sorted when they’re young, you can make sure that they have cover in place before an unexpected childhood condition can arise. If it doesn’t, that’s great! But if the worst were to happen, you and your family can rest assured knowing that your child is covered.

The amount of New Zealand children covered by private health insurance is rising, with 2022 seeing the highest percentage of children aged 0-14 with cover. It’s easy to see why these numbers are rising—parents are more and more concerned with how they will cope emotionally, but also financially, if something were to happen to their child.

We all know how costly surgeries and medical treatments can be, especially if they’re not funded by Pharmac, so the best thing you can do for your family is to insure your children when they’re young. And with an offer like this one that nib is offering this summer season, why wouldn’t you?

If you’ve been thinking about getting health insurance sorted for you and your partner to help protect your family, now’s the time to get in touch with us to take advantage of this great offer.

Already have insurance in place? Come and chat to us to make sure it still works for you. We’ll go through your needs and your budget so you can feel safe in the knowledge that you’ll be covered when you need it most. Your current cover might be just the ticket, but if not, we can explain your options and help you find the best fit for your family.

After all, the best gift you can give your family this Christmas is the gift of good health and peace of mind.
