How does Medibank Pet Insurance differ from Medibank Private Health Insurance?
If you have Medibank Private Health Insurance, this will be set up as a continuous membership of Medibank Private as long as you pay your premiums. In contrast, Medibank Pet Insurance is considered a form of general insurance, which means a policy is issued for a fixed contract term (12 months in the case of Medibank Pet Insurance). Prior to the expiry of each contract term, you will receive a renewal notice, in which a new offer of insurance is made. You can renew the policy for the life of your pet as long as you continuously maintain your policy and pay the premiums when due.
