KiwiCare is a shared cover plan. Please call us if you wish to apply.
The plan provides a contribution towards cancer care, surgical procedures†, consultations1, diagnostic imaging, tests and some recovery. Shared cover means you and Southern Cross each pay some of the costs of the healthcare you receive.
To help reduce your premiums, you can choose KiwiCare Budget which has a $500 per member per claims year excess.
