Cohort Go Health Insurance Terms of Use


  1. Providers. Cohort Go provides Services and the insurance providers provide the insurance policies to you. If you decide to apply for an insurance product, by using a link on the Website, Cohort Go will collect your application and payment and submit those to the relevant provider. You acknowledge that any policy you purchase is purchased from the provider under the provider’s terms and conditions, and not by Cohort Go, and Cohort Go is not liable to you in relation to the policy. Cohort Go is not a registered health benefits organisation, and does not provide any health-related services.

The comparison contains no personal recommendations, suggestions or advice about the suitability of a product or service for you and your needs, and does not take into account your individual circumstances. Not all products are the same and you should confirm the exact terms of any product that you intend to purchase prior to proceeding. For certain insurances, Cohort Go may not compare all products in the market. You are responsible for your choice of insurance and should you have any doubt regarding a policy, you should seek further advice in order to make a fully informed decision.
