We’ve updated our brand, but our promise stays the same: to support all Australians connected to Defence with trusted, not-for-profit health cover.

Navy Health: A New Look for the Same Unwavering Dedication to the Defence Community

For 70 years, Navy Health has proudly supported those who serve—and those who stand behind them. From our beginnings focused on Navy personnel, we’ve grown into a private health insurer embracing the full breadth of Australia’s Defence community—including a growing number of families from the Army, Air Force, and Defence Industry.

Today, we’re excited to launch a bold new chapter in our story: a fresh new look, a modern voice, and a renewed commitment to everyone connected to Defence. Navy Health is no longer just for the Navy—we’re for everyone who helps keep Australia safe and strong.

A New Look for a Broader Mission

Our new brand identity reflects both our history and our future. While our name honours our history, our mission goes far beyond any single service branch.

This rebrand isn’t just cosmetic. Yes, we’ve introduced a refreshed logo, updated visual identity, and a clearer, more confident tone of voice. But this transformation also reinforces our long-standing commitment to clarity, inclusivity, and service excellence. With our new look comes a more approachable, modern feel that reflects who we serve today and where we’re heading next.

We’ve listened closely to our members and shaped a brand that speaks to their needs and experiences. It’s about cutting through the complexity of private health insurance, improving the way people engage with us, and showing that we understand the unique needs of those living a Defence lifestyle.

From digital experiences to day-to-day communications, this rebrand helps us deliver greater clarity, trust, and connection at every touchpoint.

“Our new brand is a proud milestone that reflects how far we’ve come. While our roots are in the Navy, we’re now a whole-of-Defence health insurer, committed to supporting all who serve through smarter technology, improved services, and greater focus on wellbeing.”
— Ron Wilson, CEO, Navy Health

This vision is at the heart of everything we do. Our aim is to make it easier than ever for Defence-connected Australians to understand their options with confidence and to feel supported every step of the way.

Who We Serve

We proudly offer cover to:

  • Current and former members of the Royal Australian Navy, Army, and Air Force.

  • Veterans and Reservists, both full-time and part-time.

  • Immediate family members, including partners, children, and dependents.

  • Employees and contractors working in Defence-related roles.

Whether you’re in uniform, behind the scenes, or supporting someone who serves, Navy Health recognises your contribution, and we’re here to support your wellbeing in return.

Why Choose Navy Health?

As a not-for-profit, members-first health fund, we exist solely to benefit our members. That means our focus is always on delivering better value, higher-quality service, and smarter health cover.

Here’s what makes Navy Health different:

  • Exceptional Value
    We reinvest profits into improving member benefits and services, rather than paying dividends to shareholders. That translates into more comprehensive cover, more support, and better health outcomes.

  • Genuine Service
    Our agile, Melbourne-based team understands the Defence lifestyle—because it’s in our DNA. When you get in touch, you speak with real people who know what matters to you. On average, member calls are answered in under a minute, and extras claims are paid back within 48 hours*.

  • Tailored Health Cover
    We offer a range of hospital and extras options to suit Defence families and individuals at all life stages—from young singles to families to retirees.

  • Technology Investments
    We’re also investing in technology to make the member experience faster, smoother, and more personalised. Our new mobile app (rated 4.8 stars)* and member portal make it easier than ever to manage your cover.

  • A Proven Legacy of Trust
    With 70 years of experience serving the Defence community, we’ve built a reputation for reliability, fairness, and personalised care.

We understand that health insurance can be complicated—but it doesn’t have to be. That’s why we speak clearly, act transparently, and make sure our members always feel in control of their health choices.

Not Just a Health Fund—A Health Partner

Our rebrand isn’t about changing who we are, it’s about better reflecting who we’ve always been—a dedicated partner to everyone in the Defence community.

We’re proud to support those who serve Australia and those who serve them. Whether you’re in uniform, handling logistics, working in tech, or managing life at home, you’re part of the Defence network—and we’re here for you.

We’ve also launched our Transition Healthcare Hub—a dedicated resource to support serving members moving into civilian life, helping them navigate their health needs every step of the way.

We’re making it easier than ever to connect, compare cover, and feel confident about your healthcare with Navy Health. Our future focus is firmly on supporting members through a range of preventative health initiatives—from mental health to spinal surgery prevention programs—helping them live healthier, more informed lives.
