This year, HCF also won state-based awards for Outstanding Value in Hospital Cover in Western Australia, South Australia, and Queensland, the company announced in a news release. Additionally, its health packages in Tasmania, Victoria, and Western Australia earned further recognition.
“Being recognized for nine consecutive years is a testament to our ongoing focus on putting members first,” said HCF CEO Sheena Jack. “These awards demonstrate HCF’s dedication to providing affordable, high-value health insurance that meets the diverse needs of nearly 2 million Australians.”
Jack emphasised the fund’s ongoing efforts to ensure affordability and support for its members. “For over 90 years, we’ve been proud to offer what we call our uncommon difference,” she said.
HCF’s strong performance in the annual Canstar Health Insurance Awards underscores its ability to offer a wide range of health services and insurance solutions under one roof, providing members with convenience and reliability, the company said.
“As a not-for-profit, our focus is always on supporting our members, not shareholders,” said Jack. “Our members trust that we are committed to providing top-tier care while keeping premiums as low as possible, even in challenging economic times.”
Jack also noted the significance of HCF’s continuous recognition. “Receiving Canstar’s Outstanding Value Award year after year shows we’re continually raising the bar in how we serve our members. Our mutual structure allows us to innovate for the long term and focus on what truly matters—helping our members achieve their health goals.”
