Our story

Protection and wellbeing made for today

Flip is the smarter, more flexible way to protect your health and your wallet, without overcommitting.

For too long, looking after your health and wellbeing has felt complicated, expensive or out of reach. There were so many confusing choices, hidden costs and products that didn’t fit your life.

Flip is working to change that. We believe everyone deserves simple, flexible options to protect their health, support their wellbeing and give them confidence for whatever comes next.

Where it all began

Flip was founded in 2021 by HCF, Australia’s largest not-for-profit health fund. We started by launching Australia’s first on-demand accidental injury insurance, making cover flexible and affordable for active lives.

But we didn’t stop there. Listening to our community, we saw a bigger opportunity: to help more people access the care and confidence they need. Not just when things go wrong, but every day.

Evolving from protection to wellbeing

Today, Flip offers a growing range of products designed to make wellbeing easy and accessible for all.

Whether you want fast, flexible cover for life’s accidental injuries or a simple way to stay on top of your dental health, we’re here to help you take charge, without jargon, lock-ins or hidden catches.

Innovation runs deep

Our goal is to change how people can protect their health and wellbeing.

Who is Flip for?

arrow down

Flip currently welcomes people that live in Australia, between the ages of 5 and 64. This includes international students, people on working holiday visas and people on temporary working visas. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to buy our current product if you or your child don't live in Australia or are temporarily in Australia as a tourist.

Should I get accidental injury insurance if I already have Medicare and private health insurance?

arrow down

We can’t give you personal financial advice. It’s up to you to decide whether Flip is the right fit for you, but Flip accidental injury cover can be suitable if you are looking for a product that provides a cash payout and reduces the financial impact of the accidental injuries covered by it.

In the meantime, here’s a list of some of the things people generally spend their money on when they get injured:

  • casting material, moon boots, braces, slings, splints or crutches
  • specialist gaps from the physio, dentist or surgeon
  • anaesthetist fees
  • ambulance fees
  • transportation if you can’t drive like Ubers and taxis
  • assistance while injured like getting a babysitter, dog sitter or food delivery
