As a mutual, for-member organisation and the largest industry-based health fund, Teachers Health Fund understands the needs of teachers and their families.
Since 1954, we have been committed to providing quality products and services, along with the highest possible benefits, to our members at the lowest sustainable cost. Teachers Health Fund proudly cares for the needs of over 240,000 people across Australia. As a health fund specifically for teachers and their families, we understand that your health and well-being is important. We know that it 
is a particularly difficult decision for teachers to take leave from work due to illness. Private health insurance can help you to manage your health needs with a range of Hospital cover options and Extras products so you can control when and where you are treated and by who. You can also take advantage of services which help to alleviate or prevent an illness or condition such as physio, dental, optical, psychology and speech therapy.
As a health fund exclusively for teachers, we can give you the credit
you deserve with:
- Competitively priced health insurance
- Generous benefits for services we know are important to you, such as optical, dental, speech therapy and psychology
- An understanding of the needs of teachers and theirfamilies
- Online claiming for a range of Extras services
- A mutual, for-member health fund which means your contributions go towards improved products and services
