Australian Unity Health Insurance

Quit smoking, time to kick butt

Australian Unity will help you break the habit of smoking by giving you $120 on completion of a quit smoking course run by Smokenders, Allen Carr's Easyway and the Quit Foundation, as part of your health insurance.
To claim, all you need to do is send the receipt from your approved quit smoking provider with a completed claim form to Australian Unity.

  • No waiting period applies
  • Up to $120 on completion of an approved quit smoking course
  • $240 per person lifetime limit
  • A valid receipt is required

Available with all hospital, Combination and Extras cover except Overseas Visitors Cover. Where a member has both Hospital and Extras cover benefits may only be claimed under the Hospital cover.

Six good reasons why you should quit smoking

  1. Nicotine will be out of your system after 12 hours
  2. Your immune system will start to recover and your blood pressure will return to its normal level after just a month
  3. Your lungs will stop producing extra phlegm caused from smoking within two months
  4. Your increased risk from dying of heart disease will be half that of a smoker after 12 months
  5. 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) after 10 years
  6. Your risk of heart attack and stroke will be almost the same as that of a person who has never smoked after 15 years.
