HealthCarePlus offers more than just health insurance
Created by the unions that protect your rights at work - to support your health in life. We believe that in today’s world, supporting your health & wellbeing is much more than just access to affordable health insurance. We now provide ‘Member-only’ services & offers from a range of trusted partners that aims to support your financial, physical and mental wellbeing.
Plus, you don’t need to buy a Health Insurance Plan to join HealthCarePlus now. Just by being a union member, you are eligible to join. You can register to become an Associate Member which will give you access to a growing range of offers and discounted services, that have been carefully selected to support your financial, physical, and mental health & wellbeing.

Better cover
HealthCarePlus’s Primary Care healthcare plans are designed to help offset your day-to-day health costs across a very broad range of services - making personal and family healthcare, truly affordable.
There are no exclusions based on ‘pre-existing condition’ exclusions, and our Primary Care Plans can leave typical families hundreds of dollars a year better off. Even if you leave your union, your eligibility continues for life.
We also offer comprehensive hospital cover for those that need it, through our Hospital Select scheme - and discounted offers on travel and life insurance through leading providers that we’ve selected to give you the most value, for a fair price.

Broader benefits
Beyond insurance, we offer special ‘member-only’ discounts on other financial services - such as discounted rates when joining Enrich Retirement as a Premium Member so you can access all the information you need to plan your retirement to make it easy for you to have the retirement you deserve.
We specifically select trusted, and wherever possible NZ-owned and operated partners who (like us) are all about putting customers first - and then negotiate exclusive ‘added value’ on behalf of our Members.

Advice & Support
In addition to connecting you to ‘added value’ services - we also offer HealthCarePlus Members a range of free resources and tools to support your physical, mental or financial health and wellbeing. From financial advice to a market-leading health and wellbeing platform, there’s a range of options on call - and we’re constantly working to offer you even more.
And the best part? As an eligible union member, you’re already part of HealthCarePlus. Just register here so that we can keep you up to date with new offers and services that best suit you and your families needs.

Giving back
Giving back to workers in the education & and public service sectors, is what all our services are designed to do. But in addition, HealthCarePlus on behalf of our Members contributes to the advancement of the education for all Kiwi’s via our charitable ‘Grants for Good’ program. This program assists both individuals in need, or those individuals or groups with great ideas dream’s come true
So from assisting with hardship needs, to funding professional development activities or research projects- there are a wide range of charitable education grants on offer.
— I want everyday support with healthcare expenses
Our Primary Care cover is designed to maximise the benefits paid to you, not minimise them. Plus, our Plans have less of the usual barriers and exclusions to join and often pay out more each year to typical families, than they cost. And once you’re a Member, you and your family can enjoy the benefits, not just for the rest of your union membership – but for the rest of your life.
