Keep Medibank: sack Howard!

Despite growing community concerns, the Federal Government is steaming ahead with plans to sell Medibank, Australia's most successful 'not-for-profit' health fund. While big business is keen to get its hands on Medibank's $1 billion assets, there serious concerns the sale will reduce competition; putting pressure on premiums, jobs and services. At the very least, Medibank's three million members deserve a say in its future. If you agree, please complete the survey.

Did you know...

  • Medibank is Australia's only national health fund, with outlets in every state.
  • More than 3 million Australians rely on Medibank.
  • Medibank is a publicly owned, 'not-for-profit' company.
  • Under the current rules, any profits made by Medibank must be reinvested for the benefit of members.
