nib launches new adviser product

Health insurer nib has launched a new adviser-only offer that allows customers to mix and match a range of private health insurance products to create their ideal cover.

by Susan Edmunds

Chief executive Rob Hennin said the Ultimate Health and Ultimate Health Max products would provide cover for Pharmac and non-Pharmac/Mesafe approved drugs as well as a proactive health option.

“The proactive health option, offered as an add-on, is designed to complement the public health system for those seeking peace of mind around high risk health issues,” Hennin said.

“It provides cover for a range of health checks and health and well-being programmes without the need for referrals.”

Benefits apply for health screening tests such as prostate, bowel and heart screening; mole mapping, and eye, hearing and bone density tests, as well as allergy testing, vaccinations, dietitian and nutritionist consultations, gym memberships, and programs for weight-loss management and quit smoking programmes.

Hennin said it was designed to provide cover that New Zealanders would use.

“We want to make health insurance a more attractive proposition for Kiwis. It isn’t one-size fits all approach. We’re meeting the need for products that are affordable, accessible and offer true choice and flexibility to meet customers’ individual needs.”
