Private Medical Insurance - WA
We have just received a quotation for medical cover at $220 per month.
Does this seem normal for a family of 3.
My initial thought was high at almost 100GBP.

We pay about that for 3 of us. I get a discount of 5-10% because I pay my premiums through payroll (VIP they call it). I also get about half of it paid by the company. But as the basic premium - that sounds about right for top hospital and extras.

I'm a single and pay $95 per month for top hospital and extras - so double and a bit more for three sounds right. I personally think it's worth every cent!
