Introducing Qantas Assure, our new health and wellness program which rewards insured members as they take positive steps towards improving their health and well being.

QANTAS AND NIB TO CREATE A MORE REWARDING HEALTH INSURANCE EXPERIENCE - Qantas News Room

 

[Princess Fiona]

This will probably work well for me as my PHI is with NIB already.
Interesting concept re earning points via a fitness tracker

+1. Keen to hear more about this one.

FlyBuys have the same kind of concept with Medibank Private (or similar) if I remember rightly?

 

[Cruiser Elite]

Yes am very interested to see how this concept progresses.

 

[Cool Cat Phil]

Keen to learn more about the policy inclusions & exclusions along with annual fee.

Currently looking to switch private health providers due to a 30% increase when I switched from Living from NSW to Victoria 2 years ago and subsequent rise in fees due to Victoria's expensive ambulance cover.

Yes am very interested to see how this concept progresses.

Hey me to have to shed a few kilos too porky no pun intended

This is excellent! Perhaps it will provide real-time feedback on the increase in stress levels when Qantas 'enhances' its FF program by introducing changes which it does it's best to sneak in without telling people. Dozens of emails on how to earn extra points at the Qantas mall this holiday season (bordering on being 'spam' IMO)... but still not a single dedicated email on the new partner earn rates from 1 December.

Keen to see what premiums are like. Swapped insurers this year due to a huge increase in premium - always keen to bag a bargain if it involves FF points!

When I saw the thread title, I thought "oh good, qantas is introducing a Quality assurance program, to try to stop the constant problems with customers being treated poorly at overseas lounges, general service issues, etc etc" . Silly me.....

Seems to be discriminatory for lazy people!

There's a 100 point survey on https://www.qantaspoints.com/earn-points/qantas-assure toward the bottom of the page, for anyone interested,

I've been looking for an excuse to strap my Fitbit back on. And I'm still not that satisfied with my current health cover costs.

Easiest 100 point survey ever .

I guess Qantas hasn't seen this episode of The Big Bang Theory yet

Seems to be discriminatory for lazy people!

As are many illnesses

 

[dodgeyhack]

Very curious to see what the points earn will be like.

 

[juddles]

Personally I am interested - will be interesting to compare with our current policy.

And anything that makes QF as a whole stronger is good - my expected reaching of LTG this year hinges on that

 

[incumbent]

I have a pedometer that simulates a walk around Japan and quite enjoy it. There could be some fun mappings to flight routes and the like, with bonus points accrued accordingly... but then we'd probably also see a new thread on "manual pedometer manipulation macros" or something along those lines. Which may be why we can't have nice things.

It would depend on how much this costs, what it comes with and what this app thing will work on.

Is a 1km walk to work (each way) and 2-5km walking at work considered "exercise"?

My theory is if I don't want to do it, it's exercise.
