For families
What's in it for you? It's great to be able to look after your family's health without wondering where the money will come from. With activa, you're thinking ahead – not just for the day-to-day things, but for the big expenses too. Separating your health-related spending from other expenses can make it easier to avoid budget blow-outs. activa can make it easier to afford club memberships, sports gear and nutritional supplements. Essential health care, such as dentist and doctor visits, is less likely to be delayed because you've built it into your budget. You can use activa to create an 'emergency fund' for unexpected health expenses, happy in the knowledge that the money is still yours if nothing untoward happens. A lump sum payment may be available for 'serious health events'. Details about this benefit are explained in the Serious Health Event Benefit policy schedule.


	The Dawson family and activa
"We worked out how much we spent on our health each month, then put that into activa – plus a little more for peace of mind. It feels good to know that we don't have to think twice about taking the kids to the doctor – the money is there when we need it. activa also takes care of sports gear and stuff from the pharmacy. We've even used our activa card to buy camping gear.“ Get the full activa story >>


	Your teenagers and activa
Whether your teenager is still at home or has left the nest, activa can help you to look after them without interfering with their independence. Giving your teen access to an activa Account is a way to make sure they don't ignore health problems, it also ensures that your financial support goes towards important things, not just socialising! Your teen is learning about being responsible for their own wellbeing; activa can help them to develop their life management skills. There are two ways to organise activa for your teen: they can either have their own activa Account and card, or a card linked to your activa Account. Consider this: With activa you can confidently set money aside for your teen's healthcare needs, knowing that the funds can only be used for health and wellbeing. Your teen won't have to delay a trip to the doctor or dentist, because the money's not coming out of their own pocket. activa makes it easier for your teen to keep fit and continue with their sports interests.
