Australia will change the rules for private health insurance in April 2027.
The government wants to remove a special aid for people over 65 years old.
Currently, these people receive a higher refund for their insurance.
With this change, the refund will depend only on the person's salary.
According to experts, this decision is a good policy for the country.
The government can save about 940 million dollars per year.
Very few people will stop their insurance because of this.
It is thought that this will not put extra pressure on public hospitals.
