medicare levy surcharge

conservative

不想再被征这1.5%了,请教一下大家,这个surcharge是只要买任何一款hospital cover就可以免去,还是有什么特殊的规定吗?不需要买extra cover?
谢谢.

那我就挑和公司有协议的随便买一款hospital cover就行.我需要的也就是免去surcharge,其它的都无所谓,只要价格最低的就是最合适的.
谢谢楼上两位.

不是买任何一款都可以。

excess上有要求，不得大于某个数字。具体我也忘了。

surchange是1%

I think you have a mis-understanding between Medicare Levy and Medicare Levy Surcharge. The 1.5% that you were referring to is Medicare Levy, which is only exempted under very limited circumstances. I.e. you have to pay the 1.5% Medicare Levy with or without Private Health Insurance cover. I think what you are trying to avoid is the 1% Medicare Levy Surcharge, which only kicks in if your taxable income is more than $73,000 for 2010 financial year if you are single ($146,000 for a couple's combined income). All you need to do then is to apply for a Private Health Insurance policy with the very basic Hospital Cover. My preferred Private Health Insurance providers are Medibank Private (they open on Saturdays) and NIB (they are cheaper).

只要excess不等于或超过1000就能免税。
