Founded in 1950, Latrobe Health was created to support the health care needs of local residents, initially focusing on essential medical services such as hospitals and ambulances.
A lot has changed since then. Today, we provide hospital and extras cover to members nationwide. But the spirit of our founders - community, care, and doing the right thing - remains at the heart of everything we do.
We’re proud to reinvest in the communities we serve. In 2025, we established The Latrobe Health Services Foundation to support strategic partnerships and provide grants that improve health services and outcomes for people in regional and rural areas.
We are also the founding partner of the Shane Warne Legacy, bringing free and accessible Shane Warne Legacy Health Checks to Australians nationwide. Find out more about our partnership here.
You’re in safe hands, Latrobe Health is proud to provide some of the best customer service in the industry and deliver 89% member satisfaction (compared to industry at 79%, according to IPSOS Healthcare in Australia Study 2025).
Member owned
Caring for our members is not just what we do it’s who we are. And it’s more than just a friendly voice on the other end of the phone or a smile when you come into our branches.
We belong to the Members Health Fund Alliance, an alliance of 27 health insurance funds that share the principle of putting members health before profits.
As a member-owned fund, we provide:
• Value for money products – hospital and extras covers to suit all circumstances at an affordable price;
• Great service – we care about you and your health and will do what it takes to give you the best member experience possible.
Our purpose
We enable our members and the community to take control of their heath, now and into the future.
