What to look for in singles health cover

Looking for the right health cover as a young single? Private health insurance can offer different benefits depending on the level of cover you choose to take on. If you’re young, healthy and living an active life, you might want to keep your private health cover simple and affordable. As we learn through our 20s and 30s, being young doesn’t make us invincible.

Unexpected sickness and accidents are sometimes a fact of life and it’s well worth having health cover on your side regardless of your current health situation.
