Intuit is committed to supporting the health and well-being of you and your family, so we’ve partnered with Medibank to provide subsidised health care.
Eligibility
Regular employees and their eligible dependents.
How it works
Intuit contributes $3,000 for singles and $6,000 for couples/families annually towards the cost of your health insurance through Medibank. Purchasing insurance through Medibank is tax-free, so every dollar Intuit’s subsidy goes towards the cover you select.
To provide you with flexible options that fit your needs, you can choose between four levels of hospital cover and four levels of extras cover that pay a set percentage of the cost of care. Non-residents have a choice of two hospital covers and the same four levels of extras cover. You can enroll in hospital cover only, or both hospital and extras. However, if you want extras cover, you must also enroll in hospital cover.
If the health cover you select exceed Intuit’s subsidy, you pay Medibank via direct debit for your portion of the premium on the 23rd of each month.
Employees hired before August 1, 2022 can choose to be grandfathered into Intuit’s current benefit—taxable health allowance—to purchase private health insurance, in lieu of purchasing through Medibank. However, if you choose to enroll in a Medibank plan in the future, you cannot receive the health allowance again.
