overview

Australia’s national forum for key health insurance stakeholders returns virtually on the 27-28 October 2020.

The 19th Annual Health Insurance Summit will look to provide solution focused content and insightful discussions around the transformation of private health in Australia within the current regulatory framework. The summit will feature a balance of perspectives discussing the future of the private health insurance landscape whilst considering the complexity of the nation’s healthcare system and the impact of COVID19.

This isn’t just another webinar or zoom call.
