Health Insurance Private Health Insurance for retirees? Good idea?

[Leper]

I'm retired probably longer than most people on this forum. The one thing I have trust in is Private Health Insurance. The older you get, the more you'll need it. And even if you don't ever need it, it provides much peace of mind. Nailing my colours to the mast I'd say you'd be a fool to not have Private Health Insurance heading into retirement.

It is the one thing I think I will always have. I know lots of people who keep it up, giving up lots of other things before it. It has a value for peace of mind. The key thing is to be on the right plan for your stage, which is a days work in itself!

Or unfortunate enough not be able to afford the astronomical premiums
