Private Health Insurance

edited June 2013 in Health Care
So residents have until June 30th to get a private health insurance otherwise we will pay a 2% loading on top of our premium for every year we are aged over 30. Details here.

To those who have been here for a long time, may I ask if we really need a private health insurance when Medicare covers most of our medical expenses? What does private insurance provide that Medicare does not?
