Like all private health funds, Police Health has waiting periods for people who are commencing private health insurance. These may also apply to people who transfer from another insurer to Police Health, but only for any higher level of cover selected. Waiting periods also apply to our members when upgrading their cover. The purpose of these, of course, is to protect our existing members.

The waiting periods are:
