Yes, having private health insurance gives you more freedom to select the doctor and hospital of your choice, improving your overall health outcomes by allowing you more control over your medical care.

• When you change health insurance policies, your new health fund will honor any waiting periods you've previously finished with your previous fund if you convert to the same or lower level of coverage.
• For example, if you've already completed the waiting periods for heart surgery, you won't have to do so again with your new health insurance policy.
• The only times you may have to serve the waiting periods are:
• If you have not finished your original waiting time.
• For example, if you've served 6 months for a benefit that requires a 12-month wait, you'll need to complete the remaining 6 months with your new health insurance carrier before you're eligible for that service or benefit.
• For new or increased advantages.
• For example, if your new coverage includes a benefit that you were not previously insured for (such as orthodontics), you must complete the waiting period before becoming covered. If you previously had a $500 limit on dental treatments and now have a $800 maximum, you will have to wait a certain amount of time before you can use the additional $300.
• Increased excess.
• If you go from a $750 excess to a $500 excess, you must serve a waiting period before the smaller excess applies. If you are admitted to the hospital before completing this waiting time, you will be required to pay the larger excess.
