Quit smoking, time to kick butt

We all know that smoking is a bad habit and the sooner you stop the better, but it can be tough to do alone.

So, don’t. When you’re ready to make a fresh start, we’ll give you up to $120 on completion of an approved quit smoking course. Not only will your lungs thank you, but so will your wallet.

Australian Unity approved quit smoking courses are run by Smokenders, Allen Carr's Easyway and the QUIT Foundation.

Once you’re ready to claim just send the receipt provided by your approved quit smoking provider with a completed claim form to Australian Unity.

  • No waiting period
  • Up to $120 on completion of an approved quit smoking course
  • $240 per person lifetime limit
  • A valid receipt is required when claiming
  • Available with all Hospital, Combination and Extras covers except Overseas Visitors Cover. Where a member has both Hospital and Extras cover benefits may only be claimed under the Hospital cover

Give me six good reasons why I should quit smoking

  1. After 12 hours almost all of the nicotine will be out of your system.
  2. Within a month your blood pressure will return to its normal level and your immune system will begin to show signs of recovery.
  3. Within two months your lungs will no longer be producing extra phlegm caused by smoking.
  4. After 12 months your increased risk of dying from heart disease is half that of a smoker.
  5. After 10 years of stopping your risk of lung cancer is less than half that of a smoker and will continue to decline (provided the disease is not already present).
  6. After 15 years your risk of heart attack and stroke will be almost the same as that of a person who has never smoked.
