THERE’S A CHANGE coming to the health insurance market after 30 April.
At the moment, health insurance premiums are the same for adults of different ages, depending on their personal plans.
After 30 April, however, the introduction of Lifetime Community Rating (or LCR) will mean that adults who take out health insurance for the first time when 35 or older may have to pay more.
LRC works by adding an extra 2% on to your premium for each year above 34 years old, to a maximum of 70%.
In a nutshell, this means that if you take out health insurance earlier in life, and keep it up, you will pay less than someone who takes it out for the first time at an older age.
