    It is under ours - but in a public hospital, shared ward. Watching an aunt wait over 2 years on a grinding knee and hip for public - and then having to chose between having the knee or hip done then being put on the back of the list for the other - I'll go private thanks

    not really. There is iSelect, but it's not a comprehensive site...
    You're better off looking at the things you need, and creating a spreadsheet to compare.

    Thanks for all the sites. I will look into them. i had a quick look on i select.

    I know with any pre exisitng conditons you must wait 12 months before you can claim but does this include your hospital stay too? Or can u claim hospital stay fees within first 12 months?

    Got HCF last year, mainly cos I have sooooooooooo many issues with my teeth. Teeth look great but so many damn fillings needed. Had a root canal done, one more to go. & also for future when we start to grow our family :)
